Answer:

To calculate the gradient of a straight line we choose two points on the line itself. The difference in height (y co-ordinates) ÷ The difference in width (x co-ordinates).

Answer:

$y=\dfrac{1}{36}x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Where p is the distance from focus to vertex, the equation of the parabola with focus at (0, p) is ...

$y=\dfrac{1}{4p}x^2$

Your parabola has p=9, so the equation is ...

$y=\dfrac{1}{4\cdot 9}x^2=\bf{\dfrac{1}{36}x^2}$

Answer:

1 $\frac{3}{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

the denominators must be the same so, since 4 goes evenly into 24 we can create an equivalent fraction from 3/4 to 18/24 (multiply numerator and denominator by 6)

now you can add:

$\frac{15}{24}$ + $\frac{18}{24}$ = $\frac{(15+18)}{24}$ = $\frac{33}{24}$
