Gabriella is designing a flashlight that uses a parabolic reflecting mirror and a light source. the shape of the mirror can be modeled by (y+3)^2=26(x-2) where x and y are measured in inches. where should she place the bulb to ensure a perfect beam of light?

So, the perfect point for the bulb is at parabolic focus. Thankfully, parabolic equation is given in a standart form. So, the visual representation on the carthesian will be a parabola laying sideways facing to the right, with an extremum of (2; -3). Standart view is . Then, focal parameter is . Then, focus will be at (2+0.5p; -3) or (8,5; -3).

Gotta be d the music of previous eras

The first one is 2/3the second is 1/160the third is 4/125
