I like point point form because it doesn't fail in the no slope case. The line through (a,b) and (c,d) is
(c-a)(y-b) = (d-b)(x-a)
Point slope form is almost the same,
1. (a,b)=(4,0),(c,d)=(-2,1)
y - 0 = (1 - 0)/(-2 - 4) (x - 4)
Answer: y = (-1/6)(x-4)
2.
y - -2 = (3 - -2)/(5 - -3) (x - -3)
Answer: y + 2 = (5/8) (x+3)
3.
y - 1 = (4 - 1)/(3 - -5) (x - -5)
Answer: y - 1 = (3/8) (x+5)
Answer:
<h2>c. (0, 0)</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
So what you would do is you would divide the top number (numerator) by the bottom number (denominator) Like you would normally. So take 3/10 for example you would punch into a calculator 3 divided by 10 or do the work which would be
0.3
and that is how you convert a fraction into a decimal with a denominator of 10
I hope that this helped you. (:
Let's first rewrite it in vertex form.
Start by completing the square.
y = x² + 4x + 4 - 4 - 1
y = (x + 2)² - 5
(x + 2)² = y + 5
Now, 4a = 1; a =
So, the vertex form is (x + 2)² = 4(
)(y + 5)
So, we know that the vertex is at (-2, -5).
Since it's a concave up parabola, we just have to change the y-value to find the focus.
∴ F(-2, -5 +
)
F(-2,
)
