Any point on the parabola can be labeled (x, y), as shown. What are the distances from the point (x, y) to the focus of the parabola and the directrix? Select two answers. distance to the focus: (x+3)2+(y−3)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√
distance to the focus: (x−2)2+(y+3)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√
distance to the focus: (x+3)2+(y−2)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√
distance to the directrix: |x−4|
distance to the directrix: |y−4|
distance to the directrix: |y+4|

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of the equation:

y  =

Directrix: y=4

Focus: (-3,2)

Points on the parabola (x,y):

(-5,2) (-3,3) (-1,2)

Distance from points to focus:

(-5,2) = (-3,2)

Answer choices:  (x+3)^2+(y−3)^2, (x−2)2+(y+3)2, (x+3)2+(y−2)2

(-5+3)^2+(2-3)^2=5

(-5-2)^2+(2+3)^2=74

(-5+3)^2+(2-2)^2=4

(-1,2)

the correct answer option is (2x-3)(2x+3).

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to factorize it:

we are to find such factors that when multiplied they give a result of 36 (9 x 4 = 36) and when added they give a result of 0.

the two such factors of 36 are negative six and postive six.

factorizing the given expression to get:

therefore, the correct factorization of is (2x-3)(2x+3).

answer: the proof is mentioned below.

step-by-step explanation:

since, given:   lines bc = ef

prove:   lines ac > ef

          statements                                           reason

1. bc=ef                                           1. given

2. ac= ab+bc                                 2. because b is the point between the  

                                                            line segment ac

3.   ac > bc                                       3. because if a line segment is equal to

                                                          the sum of two line segments then it is

                                                          always greater then each of these

                                                          individual line segments

4. ac > ef                                         4. by equality property.
