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

Musya8 [376]
You can make an equation
  6+x(1.5)=36
 -6             -6

x(1.5)=30
/1.5    /1.5
----------------
x=20
You can buy 20 tickets or less  so 
x is less than or equal to 20

joja [24]

Answer:

27.52 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage increase = (new - original)/ original * 100

new = 318270

old = 249583

Substitute in what we know

percentage increase = (318270-249583)/249583 *100

                                     = (68687/249583) *100

                                       .275207045*100

                                       27.5207045 percent

tan = opp/adj

x = 13(tan 45)

x = 13

//

a² + b² = c²

13² + 13² = 338²

square root of 338 is not a rational number so turn into mixed radical.

//

x \: = 13

y = 13 \sqrt{2}
