Answer:

y² + 10y + 6x + 58 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus of the parabola has been given as (-7, -5) and directrix as x = -4

Let a point on the parabola is (x, y).

By the definition of a parabola, "distance of a point on parabola is equidistant from focus and directrix".

Distance from focus of the given point = \sqrt{(x+7)^2+(y+5)^2}

Distance of the point from directrix = \sqrt{(x+4)^2}

Therefore, equation of the parabola will be,

\sqrt{(x+7)^2+(y+5)^2}=\sqrt{(x+4)^2}

(x+7)^2+(y+5)^2=(x+4)^2

x² + 14x + 49 + y² + 10y + 25 = x² + 8x + 16

y² + 14x + 10y + 74 = 8x + 16

y² + 10y + 6x + 58 = 0

Why can't the input value be negative?
ddd [48]

If you are working with time or days, you can't put in a negative value because if you are doing an experiment, you can't go back in time to do that experiment to gather data. (Time for the most part considered to be an input value so that's why I used it as an example.)

Does anyone know this? Needed ASAP

Answer:

50 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula provided, a = \frac{1}{2}h(b_1+b_2), substituting the height (5), b1 (8) and b2 (12), we can solve for the formula.

a = \frac{1}{2}\cdot5(8+12)\\\\a = \frac{1}{2}\cdot5(20)\\\\a = \frac{1}{2}100\\\\a = 50

Hope this helped!

To compare these numbers, you must first put them into one format.  Since you have mixed numbers, you may have to find and use the LCD.

-2.5, 1/5, 10, -12/4, 18/5, 10 could be simplified somewhat immediately:

-2.5, 1/5, 10, -3, (3 3/5)   This set of numbers is simple enough so that you could rearrange them in ascending order mentally:

-3, -2.5, 1/5, (3 3/5), 10

In this case the number of elements in this set is odd, so all you have to do is to select the MIDDLE element:  1/5.

The median is 1/5.

You MUST learn this procedure (arranging the set elements in ascending order and selecting the middle element) so that you can apply it yourself.
