The vertex is always halfway between the focus and the directrix, and the parabola always curves away from the directrix, so I'll do a quick graph showing the focus, the directrix, and a rough idea of where the parabola.
<span>So the vertex, exactly between the focus and directrix, must be at <span>(h, k) = (1,
–2)</span><span>. The absolute value of </span>p<span> is the distance between the vertex and the focus and the distance between the vertex and the directrix. (The sign on </span>p<span>tells me which way the parabola faces.) Since the focus and directrix are two units apart, then this distance has to be one unit, so </span><span>| p | = 1</span>.<span>Since the focus is to the left of the vertex and directrix, then the parabola faces left (as I'd shown in my picture) and I get a negative value for </span>p<span>: </span><span>p = –1</span><span>. Since this is a "sideway" parabola, then the </span>y<span> part gets squared, rather than the </span>x<span> part. So the conics form of the equation must be:</span>(y<span> – (–2))2 = 4(–1)(x – 1)</span><span>, or </span><span>(y<span> + 2)</span>2<span> = –4(</span>x<span> – 1)</span></span>

Answer:
r u in school
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
Answer: 7/36
This is in fraction form
The decimal version of this number is roughly 0.1944
-----------------------------------
To get this answer, we multiply the fractions 7/9 and 2/8
The fraction 7/9 is the probability of selecting purple on the first draw. There are 7 purple out of 9 total (2+7 = 9)
The fraction 2/8 is the probability of selecting white on the second draw. This is assuming we don't put the first selection back in the bag. There are 2 white out of 8 marbles over
Multiply the fractions to get:
(7/9)*(2/8) = (7/9)*(1/4) = (7*1)/(9*4) = 7/36
============================================================
Part B
Answer in fraction form: 1/36
Answer in decimal form: 0.0278 (which is approximate)
------------------
We have 2 white out of 9 total. So the probability of getting white the first time is 2/9
After we select and don't put that first selection back, we have 1 white out of 8 left over. The probability of getting white a second time is 1/8
Multiply the fractions:
(2/9)*(1/8) = (2*1)/(9*8) = 2/72 = 1/36
============================================================
Part C
Answer: There is a greater chance to get two purple in a row
------------------
Without doing any math, you can tell that purple is more likely simply because there are more purple than white. We have 7 purple and 2 white. For any given single selection, we have a greater chance of picking purple over white.
If you want do to the math, then the probability of selecting two white marbles in a row is 1/36 = 0.0278 which was found in part B above.
The probability of selecting two purple is (7/9)*(6/8) = (7/9)*(3/4) = (7*3)/(9*4) = 21/36 = 7/12 = 0.5833
In summary,
the probability of selecting two white marbles in a row is 0.0278
the probability of selecting two purple marbles in a row is 0.5833
we see that the probability for the two purple marbles is much greater
