Algebra.Com's Answer #21904 by Nate(3500)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 4(y-2) = (x-4) ^2 \n" ); document.write( "(y-2) = (1/4)(x-4)^2 \n" ); document.write( "y=(1/4)(x-4)^2+2 \n" ); document.write( "In y=a(x-h)^2+k the vertex is (h,k), so the vertex for this equation is (4,2) \n" ); document.write( "The length from vertex to focus is: p=(1/4a)=(1/1)=1, so the focu is (4,3) \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
