The answer would be -10/20 which is simplified to -1/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The directrix is a vertical line, so the parabola is horizontal. The focus lies to the left of the directrix, so the parabola opens to the left.
For a left-opening parabola:
x = a(y-k)²+h,
a < 0,
vertex (h,k)
focal length p = 1/|4a|
focus (h-p, k)
directrix: x=h+p
Apply your data
focus (1,-4)
directrix x=2
vertex (1.5,-4).
focal length p = 0.5
a = -1/|4p| = -½
x = -½(y-2)²+ ½
<span>Determine the values of x on which the function f(x)=2x^2-x-15/4x^2-12x is discontinuous and verify the type of discontinuity at each point.
A.There is a vertical asymptote at 0 and a hole at 3.
B.There are vertical asymptotes at -5/2 & 0 and a hole at 3.
C.There is a vertical asymptote at 3 and a hole at 0.
D.There are vertical asymptotes at 0 & 3.

Result:
(-7/4)x^2-13x
The roots are:
x= -52/7
x=0
