(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)
vertex is (h,k)
p is the distance from focus to vertex and distance from vertex to directix (vertex is in middle of directix and focus)
if p is positive, the parabola opens up and the focus is above the directix
if p is negative, the parabola opens down and the focus is below the directix
we see the directix is over the focus (1>-1) so the parabola opens down and p is negative
distance from (5,-1) to y=1 is 2 units
2/2=1
p=-1 since p is negative
1 up from (5,-1) is (5,0)
veretx is (5,0)
(x-5)^2=4(-1)(y-0)
(x-5)^2=-4y is the equation
Answer:
9,400 bacteria at Hour 17.
Step-by-step explanation:
If at
Hour 0, it was at 6,000 bacteria then at
Hour 6, it would be at 7,200 bacteria
That means in 6 hours, the bacteria has grown by 1,200
Let's use a ratio:
hours : bacteria
6 : 1,200
1 : 200
17 : 3,400
Now after 17 hours, 3,400 new bacteria has joined our group of 6,000
6000+3400=9400
9,400 bacteria should be present at Hour 17
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
4800-1400 because 200*7 equals 1400.
-3 would be before the zero and the point would be on the 3.3 on the line
