Answer:

1 ; 7 /17

Step-by-step explanation:

17 balls numbered 1 through 17

Picking without replacement :

If the second ball picked = 4

P(first ball has a smaller number)

Numbers less Than = (3, 2, 1)

P(number less than second ball Given 4 is drawn for second ball) :

= (3/17 * 1/16) ÷ (3/17 * 1/16) +) 14/17 * 0)

= (3 / 272) / (3 /272) * 0

= 3 / 272 * 272 / 3

= 1

2.)

(8/17 * 7/8) ÷ (8/17 * 7/8) + (9/17 * 1/17)

7/17 ÷ (7 /17) + 10/17

7 /17 ÷ 17/17

7/17 ÷ 1

7 /17

What are the focus and directrix of the parabola with the equation y=1/12 x^2
Nataly [62]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

\boxed{y=-3}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The graph of this parabola is shown below. From this graph we know that:

VERTEX:

(h,k)=(0,0)

DIRECTIX:

Since the vertex lies on the origin and the parabola opens upward, then the standard form of this parabola is:

x^2=4py

So:

y=\frac{1}{12}x^2 \\ \\ \therefore 12y=x^2 \ or \ x^2=12y \\ \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ 4p=12 \therefore p=3

Then the directrix is:

y=k-p \\ \\ \therefore y=0-3 \therefore \boxed{y=-3}
