Answer:

<h3>                 y = -9</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The directrix is at the same distance from the vertex as the focus but on the opposite side of the vertex.

x coordinate the same for a focus and a vertex (4) means the parabola opens up or down and the directrix is parallel to the x-axis.

y coordinate of the focus greater than y coordinate of the vertex means the parabola opens up and the directrix lays below the vertex.

-1-(-5) = - 1 + 5 = 4

so: - 5 - 4 = -9 is the y coordinate of points of the directrix

siniylev [52]

Answer: 11.2x -9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

7.2(x + 3) + 4(x - 3) -  12       - 7.2* (x + 3) + + 4*(x - 3) then

7.2x + 21.6 + 4x -  12  - Combining like terms 7.2x+ 4x  and numbers + 21.6-  12          

7.2x + 4x +21.6 -12       Then we have

11.2x -9.6

Please help me and show your work
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x + 4

Plugin x = 3 in the equation,

y = 3*3 + 4

 = 9 + 4

y = 13

Plugin x = 4 in equation,

y = 3*4 + 4

  = 12 + 4

y = 16

Plugin x = 5 in the equation,

y = 3*5 + 4

  = 15 + 4

y = 19

2) y =x - 7

Plugin x = 10 in the equation

y = 10 - 7

y = 3

Plugin x = 15 in the equation

y = 15 - 7

y = 8

Plugin x = 20 in the equation

y = 20 - 7

y = 13
