What is the equation of a quadratic graph with a focus of (-4,17/8) and a detric of y=15/8 answer

keeping in mind that the vertex is between the focus point and the directrix, in this cases we have the focus point above the directrix, meaning is a vertical parabola opening upwards, Check the picture below, which means the "x" is the squared variable.

now, the vertical distance from the focus point to the directrix is , which means the distance "p" is half that or 1/8, and is positive since it's opening upwards.

since the vertex is 1/8 above the directrix, that puts the vertex at , meaning the y-coordinate for the vertex is 2.

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
