Answer:
y = -x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
As we move from (8, 0) to (0, 8), we see x decreasing by 8 ('rise') and y increasing by 8 ('run'). Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise/run = 8/(-8) = -1.
Starting from y = mx + b and substituting 8 for x, 0 for y and -1 for m, we get:
0 = -1(8) + b, or b = 8
Then the equation of the line through the two given points is y = -x + 8. Any line parallel to this one has the same slope: m = -1.
Repeat the above work to find the y-intercept of the line parallel to y = -x + 8 that goes through (2, 5):
5 = -2 + b, or b = 7
Then the desired line (final answer) is y = -x + 7

Answer: c. 8(y-6) = (x-2)^2</h3>
Explanation:
The directrix is horizontal, so the axis of symmetry is vertical. We'll have an x^2 term. The vertical distance from y = 4 to y = 8 is 4 units. Cut this in half to get 2, which is the focal distance p = 2.
The point (2,4) is directly below (2,8), and the point is on the directrix. The midpoint between (2,4) and (2,8) is (2,6). This is the vertex.
(h,k) = (2,6)
4p(y-k) = (x-h)^2
4*2(y-6) = (x-2)^2
8(y-6) = (x-2)^2
