Consider we need to find the equation of the parabola.

Given:

Parabola with focus (2, 1) and directrix x=-8.

To find:

The equation of the parabola.

Solution:

We have directrix x=-8. so, it is a horizontal parabola.

The equation of a horizontal parabola is

(y-k)^2=4p(x-h)           ...(i)

where, (h,k) is center, (h+p,k) is focus and x=h-p is directrix.

On comparing focus, we get

(h+p,k)=(2,1)

h+p=2          ...(ii)

k=1

On comparing directrix, we get

h-p=-8         ...(iii)

Adding (ii) and (iii), we get

2h=2+(-8)

2h=-6

Divide both sides by 2.

h=-3

Putting h=-3 in (ii), we get

-3+p=2

p=2+3

p=5

Putting h=-3, k=1 and p=5 in (i), we get

(y-1)^2=4(5)(x-(-3))

(y-1)^2=20(x+3)

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is (y-1)^2=20(x+3).

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

(A)

(f×g)(x)=f(x)*g(x)

now, we can plug it

we can simplify it

(B)

Domain:

Firstly, we will find domain  of f(x) , g(x) and (fxg)(x)

and then we can find common domain

Domain of f(x):

we know that f(x) is undefined at x=0

so, domain will be

∪

Domain of g(x):

Since, it is polynomial

so, it is defined for all real values of x

now, we can find common domain

so, domain will be

∪..............Answer

Range:

Firstly, we will find range of f(x) , g(x) and (fxg)(x)

and then we can find common range

Range of f(x):

we know that range is all possible values of y for which x is defined

since, horizontal asymptote will be at y=0

so, range is

∪

Range of g(x):

Since, it is quadratic equation

so, its range will be

now, we can find common range

so, range will be

∪.............Answer
