8 0

Answer:

A. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 8 eights in a whole, and a whole is equal to the number 1. The number 2 consists of two wholes, and so we multiply 8 by 2.

8 wholes in each 1 × 2 ones = 16 wholes

Now, we know that the number 2 is equal to 16 wholes, so now we need to find how much 1/2 of a whole is worth.

1 whole = 8 eights, so divided by 2, it would be 4 eights for a half of a whole.

So, we add 16 + 4 to get the result of 20.

Describe the differences between a parabola that has a horizontal directrix and a parabola that has a vertical directrix.
Readme [11.4K]
 <span>A parabola that has a horizontal directrix is a parabola that opens up or down. 

Here are some of its components: 
1) Standard equation of a parabola with a horizontal directrix: (x-h)^2 = 4a(y-k), 
a = distance from vertex to focus 
2) Vertex at (h,k) 
3) Focus(h,k+a) 
4) Directrix: y = k-a 
5) Axis of symmetry: x = h 

A parabola that has a vertical directrix opens to the right or left and is on its side. 

Here are some components 
1) Standard equation of a parabola with a vertical directrix: (y-k)^2 = 4a(x-h) 
2) vertex (h,k) 
3) focus (h+a,k) 
4) directrix: x = h-a 
5) Axis of symmetry: y = k

Hopes this helps :)</span>
