Algebra.Com's Answer #25820 by stanbon(75887)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! using the formulas for parabolas, graph and write the equations of parabolas with the following properties. Graph an extra point other than a vertex. The Parabola with focus (0, 5) and directrix y= -5.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Draw the picture. Do you see that the parabola must be opening upward. \n" ); document.write( "Therefore the general form is x^2=4py \n" ); document.write( "P is half the distance from the directrix to the focus or p=5 \n" ); document.write( "EQUATION: \n" ); document.write( "x^2=4(5)y \n" ); document.write( "y=(1/20)x^2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "An extra point would be (1,1/20) \n" ); document.write( "Cheers, \n" ); document.write( "Stan H. \n" ); document.write( " |
