Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form:

Y -6 = -3(x - -8)

Use the distributive property on the right side first:

Y -6 = -3x -24

Add 6 to both sides

Y = -3x -18

The slope is the number in front of the x variable.

Slope = -3

Answer:

  8√3 ≈ 13.86 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The light source is usually placed at the focus, so the focus-vertex distance is p=3 ft. The equation for the parabola with its vertex at the origin is ...

  y = 1/(4p)x^2

  y = 1/12x^2

The opening for some y-value extends ±x from the axis of symmetry, so is a total of 2x in width.

For y=4, the corresponding value of x is ...

  4 = 1/12x^2

  48 = x^2

  √48 = x = 4√3

Then the width of the searchlight opening is ...

  2(4√3 ft) = 8√3 ft ≈ 13.86 ft
