12 is 9.52380952381% of 126
I can't see the picture, can you add it again so I can help?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following question:
Point A = (4, 8) = (x1, y1)
Point B = (-3, 5) = (x2, y2)
In order to find the slope any two points given we use the formula to find slope or rise/run.
The reason why the students answer is incorrect because he substituted incorrectly. More specifically the run part of the formula for slope. The formula for slope goes x2 - x1 which means it should be -3 - 4, not -4 - 3, which will give you the answer -7.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
From any point (x, y) on the parabola the focus and directrix are equidistant.
Using the distance formula
= | y - 6 |
Squaring both sides
(x + 2)² + (y - 4)² = (y - 6)² ← distributing
x² + 4x + 4 + y² - 8y + 16 = y² - 12y + 36 ( subtract y² - 12y + 36 from both sides )
x² + 4x + 4 + 4y - 20 = 0 ( subtract x² + 4x + 4 from both sides )
4y - 20 = - x² - 4x - 4 ( add 20 to both sides )
4y = - x² - 4x + 16 ( divide through by 4 )
y = - x² - x + 4, that is
f(x) = - x² - x + 4 → B
