Given that the directrix is at y = 4 and the focus is at (0, -4), then the vertex is at (h, k) = (0, 0).
p is the distance between the vertex and the focus and between the vertex and the directrix = 4 and since the focus is below the directrix, p is negative, i.e. p = -4
Equation of a parabola is given by (x - h)^2 = 4p(y - k)
Therefore, the required equation is (x - 0)^2 = 4(-4)(y - 0)
x^2 = -16y
y = -1/16 x^2
Answer:
6/7 or .857
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they are both negative, it cancels each other and becomes positive
A. 2, 200, 2000
This is multiplying the number by 10 each time. In other words, just adding an extra zero to the end of it.
b. 340, 0.034
This one is moving the decimal place forward two places. 10^-2, so removing two zeros from the end of it until eventually you reach decimals and have to move the decimal forward twice, which is essentially what you're doing here.
c. 85700, 857, 0.857
In this one, you remove one zero from the end. You move the decimal forward once when you reach the decimals. This would be 10^-1
d. 444000, 4440000, 44400000
In this one, you multiply each one by 10. Add on a zero to each one.
e. 0.095, 9500000, 950000000
You multiply this one by 10^2, so the number increases.
Answer:
1. 9461000000000
move the desimal in 9.461 12 places to the right to get:
9461000000000
2.
5.85 x 10^-3,
2.5 x 10^-1,
3.6 x 10^8,
8.5 x 10^8,
8.5 x 10^12
the smallest exponent is the smallest. Since 8.5 x 10^8 and 3.6 x 10^8 have the same exponent, go to the desimal
