Find the equation for the parabola that has its vertex at the origin and has directrix at x=1/48

The equation for a parabola with vertex at the origin and a directrix at x = 1/48 is .

Step-by-step explanation:

As directrix is a vertical line, the parabola must "horizontal" and increasing in the -x direction. Then, the standard equation for such geometric construction centered at (h, k) is:

Where:

, - Horizontal and vertical components of the location of vertex with respect to origin, dimensionless.

- Least distance of directrix with respect to vertex, dimensionless.

Since vertex is located at the origin and horizontal coordinate of the directrix, least distance of directrix is positive. That is:

Now, the equation for a parabola with vertex at the origin and a directrix at x = 1/48 is .

part a

in a city ice cream is mostly only bought when the temperature is very high as ice cream cools down our

so we can derive the conclusion that as the temperature increases the number of ice creams sold also increases

part b

y intercept is 5

slope is 2

happy to

pls mark as brainliest

you can't solve x because it is 2 linear equation and you only have one equation
