Write the equation of a parabola with focus at (1,-4) and a directrix at X=2

Answer:

The equation of a parabola is

x =  \frac{1}{4(f - h)} (y - k) ^{2}  + h

Step-by-step explanation:

(h,k) is the vertex and (f,k) is the focus.

Thus, f = 1, k = −4.

The distance from the focus to the vertex is equal to the distance from the vertex to the directrix: f - h = h - 2.

Solving the system, we get h = 3/2, k = -4, f = 1.

The standard form is:

x =  -  \frac{y ^{2} }{2}  - 4y -  \frac{13}{2}

The general form is:

2x +  {y}^{2}  + 8y + 13 = 0

The vertex form is:

x =  -  \frac{(y + 4) ^{2} }{2}  +  \frac{3}{2}

The axis of symmetry is the line perpendicular to the directrix that passes through the vertex and the focus: y = -4.

The focal length is the distance between the focus and the vertex: 1/2.

The focal parameter is the distance between the focus and the directrix: 1.

The latus rectum is parallel to the directrix and passes through the focus: x = 1.

The length of the latus rectum is four times the distance between the vertex and the focus: 2.

The eccentricity of a parabola is always 1.

The x-intercepts can be found by setting y = 0 in the equation and solving for x.

x-intercept:

( -  \frac{13}{2}  \: ,0)

The y-intercepts can be found by setting x = 0 in the equation and solving for y.

y-intercepts:

(0, - 4 -  \sqrt{3)}

(0, - 4 +  \sqrt{3)}

If f(x) =-2+8 and g(x) = square root of x+9 which statement is true
lidiya [134]

The statement that -6 is in the domain of f(g(x)) is true

<h3>Complete question</h3>

If f(x) = -2x + 8 and g(x) = \sqrt{x + 9, which statement is true?

  • -6 is in the domain of f(g(x))
  • -6 is not in the domain of f(g(x))

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

We have:

f(x) = -2x + 8

g(x) = \sqrt{x + 9

Start by calculating the function f(g(x)) using:

f(g(x)) = -2g(x) + 8

Substitute g(x) = \sqrt{x + 9

f(g(x)) = -2\sqrt{x + 9} + 8

Set the radicand to at least 0

x + 9 \ge 0

Subtract 9 from both sides

x \ge -9

This means that the domain of f(g(x)) are real numbers greater than or equal to -9. i.e. -9, -8, -7, -6, ...........

Hence, the statement that -6 is in the domain of f(g(x)) is true
