Y = x² – 4 y = 2r + 4​<br><br>Solve algebraicallu for the solutions of equations below.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, the first step is to rewrite this equation in "vertex form." You can search that up but it's basically just (h/k).

y = ( x − 1) 2 + 3

Now, we are going to use the vertex form, "y = a (x - h)2 + k, to get the values of a, h, and k.

By using the form we get 1 for the value a, 1 for the value h, and 3 for the value k.

1 = a

1 = h

3 = k

Becuse the value of a is positive, the parabola opens up!  (A parabola is the U shaped line in a graph, so that opens up.)

Now, we find the vertex (h,k)

which is (1,3)

Now we find the p from the vertex to the focus.  (vertext the top, focus one of the points.)

Follow this formula to find the distance from the vertex to a focus by using this formula

1/4a.

Now we just gonna substitue 1 for a, since we know that 1 equals a above ^

1/4 * 1

Solving that, we got a nice little 1/4.

Next we find the focus

"Find the focus.

The focus of a parabola can be found by adding p to the y-coordinate k if the parabola opens up or down.

(h,k+p)

Substitute the known values of h, p, and k into the formula and simplify.

(1,134)

Find the axis of symmetry by finding the line that passes through the vertex and the focus.

x=1

Find the directrix.

y=114

Use the properties of the parabola to analyze and graph the parabola.

Direction: Opens Up

Vertex: (1,3)

Focus: (1,134)

Axis of Symmetry: x=1

Directrix: y=114

Select a few x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values. The x values should be selected around the vertex.

xy−1704132437

Graph the parabola using its properties and the selected points.

Direction: Opens Up

Vertex: (1,3)

Focus: (1,134)

Axis of Symmetry: x=1

Directrix: y=114

xy−17041324"

(Sorry if this is long! But I hope you understand it better now! Thanks for the points!)

Answer:

a=-26,b=-10,c=-1,d=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

when x=-3

y=-(-3)^2 +4(-3)-5=a

a=-9-12-5

=-14-12

=-26

when x=-1

y=-(-1)^2 +4(-1)-5=b

=-1-4-5

b=-10

when x=2

y=-(2)^2 +4(2)-5=c

=-4+8-5

=-9+8

c=-1

when x=3

y=-(3)^2 +4(3)-5=d

=-9+12-5

=-14+12

d=-2

-8(8v + 1) - 2 = -394
Bess [88]

Answer:

v = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for v:

-8 (8 v + 1) - 2 = -394

-8 (8 v + 1) = -64 v - 8:

-64 v - 8 - 2 = -394

Grouping like terms, -64 v - 8 - 2 = -64 v + (-8 - 2):

-64 v + (-8 - 2) = -394

-8 - 2 = -10:

-10 - 64 v = -394

Add 10 to both sides:

(10 - 10) - 64 v = 10 - 394

10 - 10 = 0:

-64 v = 10 - 394

10 - 394 = -384:

-64 v = -384

Divide both sides of -64 v = -384 by -64:

(-64 v)/(-64) = (-384)/(-64)

(-64)/(-64) = 1:

v = (-384)/(-64)

The gcd of -384 and -64 is -64, so (-384)/(-64) = (-64×6)/(-64×1) = (-64)/(-64)×6 = 6:

Answer:  v = 6

Answer:

  (c)  (3, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point E partitions both the x-distance and the y-distance in the ratio 2 : 1. That is, for either the x-coordinates or the y-coordinates, ...

  CE : ED = 2 : 1

Try the answers with the x-coordinates.

  CE : ED = (1 -(-1)) : (5 - 1) = 2 : 4 . . . . incorrect

  CE : ED = (-3 -(-1)) : (5 -(-3)) = -2 : 8 . . . . incorrect

  CE : ED = (3 -(-1)) : (5 -3) = 4 : 2 = 2 : 1 . . . . correct

  CE : ED = (-1 -(-1)) : (5 -(-1)) = 0 : 6 . . . . incorrect

The only viable choice is (3, 3).

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

For a partitioning of m : n, the desired point is ...

  E = (n×C +m×D)/(m+n)

For partitioning of 2 : 1, the desired point is ...

  E = (1×(-1, -3) + 2×(5, 6))/(2+1) = (-1+10, -3 +12)/3

  E = (3, 3)
