Y^2 = 12X, Find Vertex, Focus , Directrix , Endpoints of the Latus Rectum, and Graph the Parabola.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Mkey [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a y² term, so the parabola is horizontal.

Vertex-form equation for a horizontal parabola:

x = a(y-k)² + h, where (h,k) is the vertex

If a>0, then

 the parabola opens to the right

 focal length p = 1/(4a)

 focus (h+p,k)

 directrix: x=h-p

 endpoints of latus rectum: (h+p,k±2p)

 

Put equation into vertex form.

x = (1/12)y²

vertex (0,0)

focal length p = 1/(4·1/12) = 3

focus (0+p,0) = (3,0)

directrix: x = 0-p = -3

endpoints of latus rectum: (3,±6)

Out of these numbers which of them differ by 46. 29,17,38,71,35,63,24
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

71

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 46 to each number, see if the sum is in the list. In the set of 7 numbers listed, two of them are even (24 and 38), and the other 5 numbers are odd

71

We do not need to look at all differences.

We need to find two numbers fairly far appart,

and not all look promising.

You could look at approximate differences,

or you could look at the last digit.

71-35 and 63-17 are the only promising differences,

because 71 and 63 are the only numbers large enough to be 46 more than another number in that list,

and when you calculate the last digit you calculate

11-5=6 and 13-7=6.

71-35=36

Solve the system of equations. Show ALL your work. Put your answer in the form of an ordered pair (x, y)
stiv31 [10]
This should be easy because we just have to use substitution method. Substitute the value of x from the second equation into the x of the first equation. 
                         -4(2y) + 11y = 15
                         -8y + 11y = 15
                                   3y = 15   ; y = 5
Substitute this value of y to either the first or second equation.
                                        x = 2(5) = 10
The ordered pair is therefore (10,5).

Is RS perpendicular to DF? Select Yes or No for each statement. R (6, −2), S (−1, 8), D (−1, 11), and F (11 ,4) R (1, 3), S (4,7
guajiro [1.7K]

I'll do the first one to get you started.  

Find the slope of the line between R (6,-2) and S (-1,8) to get

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (8-(-2))/(-1-6)

m = (8+2)/(-1-6)

m = 10/(-7)

m = -10/7

The slope of line RS is -10/7

Next, we find the slope of line DF

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (4-11)/(11-(-1))

m = (4-11)/(11+1)

m = -7/12

From here, we multiply the two slope values

(slope of RS)*(slope of DF) = (-10/7)*(-7/12)

(slope of RS)*(slope of DF) = (-10*(-7))/(7*12)

(slope of RS)*(slope of DF) = 10/12

(slope of RS)*(slope of DF) = 5/6

Because the result is not -1, this means we do not have perpendicular lines here. Any pair of perpendicular lines always has their slopes multiply to -1. This is assuming neither line is vertical.

I'll let you do the two other ones. Let me know what you get so I can check your work.

A) \frac{2 \frac{1}{4}}{ \frac{1}{2}}
b)\frac{1}{2} • 2 = 1
so \frac{9}{4} • 2 = \frac{9}{2} cups (which is 4 \frac{1}{2} )
