Formula of the parabola: (x - h)²<span> = 4p(y - k)
(h,k) is a vertex, </span>(1,-9) is a vertex.
<span>h=1, k= - 9
Substitute h and k into formula </span>(x - h)² = 4p(y - k)
(x - 1)² = 4p(y + 9)
Substitute x and y of the y-intercept
(x - 1)² = 4p(y + 9), x=0,y=-6.
(0 - 1)² = 4p(-6 + 9)
1 = 4p*3
1/3 = 4p, substitute value of 4p into (x - 1)² = 4p(y + 9).
(x - 1)² = 1/3(y + 9)
x²-2x+1=(1/3)y + 3
(1/3)y = x²-2x-2
y = 3x² - 6x -6
x-intercepts, is values of x when y=0.
3x² - 6x -6 = 0
x²-2x-2=0
We will find values of x using formula.
Haha, there isn't a thing that makes you 'really smart'.
However, you can grow and improve your knowledge.
The more challenging material you expose yourself to, while putting in the effort to solve them, there's no doubt you'll definitely improve!
+ you can try exercising your brain every now and then by playing trivia games or reading books- do whatever interests you and helps you learn!

Consider one pyramid
Side length of base = 1.5cm and its height is 1 cm
Slant height of one of the lateral faces = sqrt(1^2 + 0.75^2) = 1.25 cm
Area of one of the triangular faces = 0.5 * 1.5* 1.25 = 0.9375 cm^2
There are 8 of these so the required surface area = 8 * 0.9375
= 7.5 cm^2 Answer
