An equation for the parabola would be y²=-19x.
Since we have x=4.75 for the directrix, this tells us that the parabola's axis of symmetry runs parallel to the x-axis. This means we will use the standard form
(y-k)²=4p(x-h), where (h, k) is the vertex, (h+p, k) is the focus and x=h-p is the directrix.
Beginning with the directrix:
x=h-p=4.75
h-p=4.75
Since the vertex is at (0, 0), this means h=0 and k=0:
0-p=4.75
-p=4.75
p=-4.75
Substituting this into the standard form as well as our values for h and k we have:
(y-0)²=4(-4.75)(x-0)
y²=-19x

So starting with this one, we will be solving for the coordinates of the unknown endpoint separately. Starting with the x-coordinate, since we know that the midpoint x-coordinate is 5 and the x-coordinate of N is 2, our equation is set up as such:
From here we can solve for the x-coordinate of Q.
Firstly, multiply both sides by 2: 
Next, subtract both sides by 2 and your x-coordinate is 
With finding the y-coordinate, it's a similar process as with the x-coordinate except that we are using the y-coordinates of the midpoint and endpoint N.

<u>Putting it together, the missing endpoint is (8,4).</u>
<em>(The process is pretty much the same with the other problems, so I'll go through them real quickly.)</em>
<h3>20.</h3>


<u>The missing endpoint is (7,2).</u>
<h3>21.</h3>


<u>The missing endpoint is (-5,1).</u>
The correct answer is the second answer choice.
