Given:
The focus of the parabola is at (6,-4).
Directrix at y=-7.
To find:
The equation of the parabola.
Solution:
The general equation of a parabola is:
[tex]y=\dfrac{1}{4p}(x-h)^2+k[/tex] ...(i)
Where, (h,k) is vertex, (h,k+p) is the focus and y=k-p is the directrix.
The focus of the parabola is at (6,-4).
[tex](h,k+p)=(6,-4)[/tex]
On comparing both sides, we get
[tex]h=6[/tex]
[tex]k+p=-4[/tex] ...(ii)
Directrix at y=-7. So,
[tex]k-p=-7[/tex] ...(iii)
Adding (ii) and (iii), we get
[tex]2k=-11[/tex]
[tex]k=\dfrac{-11}{2}[/tex]
[tex]k=-5.5[/tex]
Putting [tex]k=-5.5[/tex] in (ii), we get
[tex]-5.5+p=-4[/tex]
[tex]p=-4+5.5[/tex]
[tex]p=1.5[/tex]
Putting [tex]h=6, k=-5.5,p=1.5[/tex] in (i), we get
[tex]y=\dfrac{1}{4(1.5)}(x-6)^2+(-5.5)[/tex]
[tex]y=\dfrac{1}{6}(x-6)^2-5.5[/tex]
Therefore, the equation of the parabola is [tex]y=\dfrac{1}{6}(x-6)^2-5.5[/tex].

Find the area of the parallelogram
Answer:
The answer is 32.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just multiply the height by the base length. 4*8=32
Assume the equation has a solution for z.
-cz+ 6z = tz + 83
z=?
Answer:
z = 83 / (- c + 6 - t)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
-cz+ 6z = tz + 83
z=?
-cz+ 6z = tz + 83
Collect like terms
-cz+ 6z - tz = 83
Factorize
z(- c + 6 - t) = 83
Divide both sides by (- c + 6 - t)
z(- c + 6 - t) / (- c + 6 - t) = 83 / (- c + 6 - t)
z = 83 / (- c + 6 - t)

Step-by-step explanation:
A lighthouse casts a 128-ft shadow. A nearby lamppost that measures 5
feet casts an 8-foot shadow. What is the height of the light house, rounded
to the nearest foot? *
Answer: 80 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write these as fractions and do cross multiplication with the numerator being the height of the object while the denominator being the length of the shadow:
5 * 128 = 8x
640 = 8x
80 = x
Thus, the height of the lighthouse is 80 feet tall.
A drawer is filled with 2 black shirts, 7 white shirts, and 11 gray shirts.
One shirt is chosen at random from the drawer. Find the probability that it is not a black shirt.
Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.
Answer:
Probability of the chosen T-shirt not being black will be equal to 9/10
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this we need to understand that probaility is equal to the number of those outcomes that we want divided by the total number of outcomes. In our case the total number of outcomes is 20 (2 + 7 + 11) which is the total number of T-shirts, and the number of outcomes that are favorable to us is equal to 18 (outcomes without a black T-shirt). Therefor probability of the chosen T-shirt not being black will be equal to...

Someone help me please !!
Answer:You can also use tables to represent functions. Instead of using two ovals with circles, a table organizes the input and output values with columns. ... Remember, a function can only assign an input value to one output value. If you see the same x-value with more than one y-value, the table does not represent a function.

what is the y-coordinate of the red point?
The y-coordinate of the red point is -3.
What is an equation of the line that is parallel to y = 3x - 8 and passes
through the point (4,-5)?
Answer:
[tex]y=3x-17[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel equations always share a slope.
So since we know the slope and a point the equation needs to pass through we can plug in the values and replace -8 with [tex]b[/tex]
[tex]-5=3(4)+b[/tex]
simplify both sides
[tex]-5=12+b[/tex]
isolate the variable
[tex]-17=b[/tex]
plug [tex]b[/tex] back into the equation and you get
[tex]y=3x-17[/tex]
Answer:
y = 3 x + 11
Explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slopes.
The slope of the new line will have the same slope as the given line:
y = 3 x − 4
⇒ m = 3
One point on the line is given,
( − 2 5 ) .
This is ( x 1 y 1 )
The formula for slope is
m = ( change in y values/ change in x-values ) = y 2 − y 1/ x 2 − x 1
If you have the slope and one point , substitute them into a formula which is based on the formula for slope given above.
y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 )
y − 5 = 3 ( x − ( − 2 ) )
y − 5 = 3 ( x + 2 )
Simplify to get the required equation of the line.
y = 3 x + 6 + 5
y = 3 x + 11

Evan, James, and Burt are fishing in a lake that has 200 fish. They are going to be fishing for three hours. What is the probability that they each will catch 3 fish?
Answer:
The probability that they each will catch 3 fish is 0.000063956
Step-by-step explanation:
The hyper geometric distribution is used to solve this as it has a population, a sample , number of successes for both the population and sample.
Here
Population size= N =200
Sample size= n =9= (3*3)
Number of successes in population = k = 3 hours
Number of successes in sample = x= 3
Applying the hyper geometric distribution
P (x=3) = kCx *(N-k) C (n-x)/ N Cn
= 3 C 3 * 197 C 6/ 200 C 9
=0.000063956
The probability that they each will catch 3 fish is 0.000063956

find the gradients of line a and b
Answer:
Gradient of A: 2
Gradient of B: -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Gradient = change in y/change in x
✔️Gradient of A using two points on line A, (2, 5) and (0, 1):
Gradient = (1 - 5)/(0 - 2) = -4/-2
Simplify
Gradient of A = 2
✔️Gradient of B using two points on line B, (0, 5) and (5, 0):
Gradient = (0 - 5)/(5 - 0) = -5/5

A small point deduction applies if a participation activity's question is not answered correctly the first time?
Answer: False
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no such deduction when a participation's questions are not answered correctly the first time. Whatever answer is given is part of the learning curve and ensures that the activity can be improved upon.
Had there been a small point deduction then there would be no opportunity to learn because there would be too much fear associated with the wrong answer.

The manager of a grocery store has selected a random sample of 100 customers. The average length of time it took these 100 customers to check out was 3.0 minutes. It is known that the standard deviation of the checkout time is 1 minute. Refer to Exhibit 8-2. If the confidence coefficient is reduced to .80, the standard error of the mean _____. a. becomes negative b. remains unchanged c. will increase d. will decrease
Answer:
b. remains unchanged
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for standard error of mean is;
SE = σ/√n
From the above, we can see that the standard error of mean is independent of the confidence coefficient as it doesn't affect the SE.
Now, we are given that;
random sample; n = 100
Standard deviation; σ = 1
Thus;
SE = 1/√100
SE = 1/10
Now, even if the confidence coefficient is reduced, we can see that it has no impact on the standard error of mean.
Thus, SE remains unchanged.

Emily and Kylie are 140 miles apart, traveling towards each other. If Kylie travels 12 mph and Emily travels 8 mph how long until they meet?
Answer: 7 hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Distance between Emily and Kylie is [tex]140\ \text{miles}[/tex]
Speed of Emily [tex]v_e=12\ mph[/tex]
Speed of Kylie [tex]v_k=8\ mph[/tex]
Distance traveled by Emily [tex]\Rightarrow d_e=12t[/tex]
Distance traveled by Kylie [tex]\Rightarrow d_k=8t[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow 12t+8t=140\\\Rightarrow 20t=140\\\Rightarrow t=7\ hr[/tex]
They will meet after 7 hour.

3 1/2 divided by 2 1/6=
Answer:
21/13
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/2 = 7/2
2 1/6 = 13/6
7/2 divided by 13/6
7/2 X 6/13 = 42/26 = 21/13
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/2 = 7/2 and 2 1/6 = 13/6
7/2 divided by 13/6 = 7/2 x 6/13
42/26
21/13 is your final answer.
find the 9th and 15th terms of the following geometric sequence 2, -4, 8, -16
Step-by-step explanation:
given the geometric sequence 2, -4, 8, -16, ...
a1 = 2
r = -4/2 = -2
find : a9 and a15
solutions:
an = a1. r^(n-1)
=> a9 = 2. (-2)^(9-1)
= 2. (-2)^8
= 2. 2^8
= 2^9
= 512.
=> a15 = 2. (-2)^(15-1)
= 2. (-2)^14
= 2. 2^14
= 2^15
= 32,768
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
The given geometric sequence is: 2, -4, 8, -16.
The;
a1 = 2
Common ratio (r) = T2/T1
= -4/2
= -2
Now;
Use general formula of geometric sequence;
[tex]tn = {a1.r}^{n - 1} [/tex]
Where, "a1" is first term, "n" is no.of terms and "r" is common ratio.
Then;
[tex]t9 = 2 \times { (- 2)}^{9 - 1} [/tex]
or, t9 = 2*256
Therefore, t9 = 512.
Again;
[tex]t15 = 2. { (- 2)}^{15 - 1} [/tex]
or, t15= 2*16384
Therefore, t15 = 32768.
