Answer:

The first step is to replace the value of x from the first equation with x in the second equation:

x=y-7

3x+15y=-1

3(y-7)+15y=-1        

3y-21+15y=-1

18y=-1+21

18y=20

y= \frac{20}{18} = \frac{10}{9}

x= \frac{10}{9} - 7

x=- \frac{53}{9}

Find the standard form of the equation of the parabola with vertex at the origin focus (-2,0)
svp [43]
Vertex = (0, 0)
focus = (-2, 0)
p = -2 - 0 = -2
Required equation is (y - k)^2 = 4p(x - h); where (h, k) = (0, 0), the vertex
(y - 0)^2 = 4(-2)(x - 0)
y^2 = -8x

Required equation in standard form is x = -1/8 y^2
