Remember that for a function of the form

, a parabola, the focus will be:

.
We know that the vertex of the parabola is (0,0), and the sun is the focus of the parabola; we also know that the focus is in the positive y-axis and when the comet is as its vertex, the distance between them is 60'000.000 km; therefore the focus of our parabola is (0, 60'000.000).
Now that we know the focus, we can find

using the focus of the parabola:




Now, the only thing left is replacing the value of

in our equation

:

We can conclude that the equation that represents the path of the comet is
Answer:
= (0, 7/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
Part A- The y-intercept would represent Benny's starting salary: b = 70,000.
The slope would represent Benny's annual raise: m = 3,000.
Part B- The y-intercept is b = 70,000.
The slope is m = 3,000.
<span>
The equation representing Benny's annual salary at any given year is y = mx + b, or y = 3,000x + 70,000, where x is the number of years since Benny started the job.</span>
Y = -2x + 1
y = -2x + 2
y = -2x + 3
these are all parallel lines because they have the same slopes (-2) but different y intercepts.
y = 3x + 4
y = -1/3x + 3
these are perpendicular lines because they have negative reciprocal slopes.
slope of a line parallel to the x axis : If it is parallel to the x axis, it is a horizontal line and has a slope of 0.
slope of a line perpendicular to the x axis : if it is perpendicular to the x axis, it is a vertical line with a slope that is undefined.
slope of line parallel to the y axis : vertical line, undefined slope
slope of a line perpendicular to the y axis : horizontal line, slope of 0
