What is your question exactly?
Answer: 1) Vertex: (6, -2) Focus: (6, -7/4) Directrix: y = -9/4
2) Vertex: (-2, -1) Focus: (-7/4, -1) Directrix: x = -9/4
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Rewrite the equation in vertex format y = a(x - h)² + k or x = a(y - k)² + h by completing the square. Divide the b-value by 2 and square it - add that value to both sides of the equation.
- (h, k) is the vertex
- p is the distance from the vertex to the focus
- -p is the distance from the vertex to the directrix

1) y = x² - 12x + 34

2) x = y² + 2y - 1


Answer: 6.5<6.55
Step-by-step explanation: Because you add the zero to the 6.50 but it’s still less than 6.55.
Answer:
4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
- The denominator is the bottom value of a fraction, therefore we can discount 9/2
- 1/9 = 2/18. 2/18 is smaller than 3/18 so we can discount 1/9
- 50/100 = 0.5
5/9 = 0.55555...
0.55555... is greatest than 0.5, therefore we can discount 5/9
