What is the equation of a parabola with a vertex at 0 0 and a focus at 0 6?
The standard equation for a Parabola with is vertex at the origin (0,0) is, x2 = 4cy if the parabola opens vertically upwards/downwards, or y2 = 4cx when the parabola opens sideways. As the focus is at (0,6) then the focus is vertically above the vertex and we have an upward opening parabola. Note that c is the distance from the vertex to the focus and in this case has a value of 6 (a positive number). The equation is thus, x2 = 4*6y = 24y
What is the standard equation of a parabola that opens up or down and whose vertex is at the origin?
focus , directrix
What is the standard equation for vertex at origin opens down 1 and 76 units between the vertex and focus?
Since the vertex is at the origin and the parabola opens downward, the equation of the parabola is x2 = 4py, where p < 0, and the axis of symmetry is the y-axis. So the focus is at y-axis at (0, p) and the directrix equation is y = -p. Now, what do you mean with 1 and 76 units? 1.76 units? If the distance of the vertex and the focus is 1.76 units, then p = -1.76, thus 4p = -7.04, then the equation of the parabola is x2 = -7.04y.
What does 4 stands for in equation of parabola square of square of y equals 4ax?
A parabola with an equation, y2 = 4ax has its vertex at the origin and opens to the right. It's not just the '4' that is important, it's '4a' that matters. This type of parabola has a directrix at x = -a, and a focus at (a, 0). By writing the equation as it is, the position of the directrix and focus are readily identifiable. For example, y2 = 2.4x doesn't say a great deal. Re-writing the equation of the parabola as y2 = 4*(0.6)x tells us immediately that the directrix is at x = -0.6 and the focus is at (0.6, 0)

What is the equation of a prabola with the vertex 0 0 and focus 0 4?
x2 = 16y The standard formula for a parabola with its vertex at the origin (0, 0) and a given focus (and the y-axis as an axis of symmetry) is as follows: x2 = 4cy In this case, the c is the y value of the focus. The focus in this case was (0, 4), and the y value in the focus is 4. That makes the c = 4. Further, that makes the equation for this parabola x2 = 4 (c)y = 4 (4)y = 16y Given that the vertex was the origin, (0, 0), and the focus is (0, 4), we can conclude that the axis of symmetry is the y-axis because the y value of the focus is 0. We can also conclude that the parabola opens up, because the focus has a positive y value.
What is the equation for an ellipse with center at the origin ,one focus at (1,1) and the length of semi major axise is 4.?
This equation is equal to the first one because it produces the same results, always. ... TL;DR - The circle equation is what you get when you multiply all terms from the ellipse equation by the radius. x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 = 1 is an ellipse equation. Well, a circle has a radius where a and b are the same.
How do you solve parabola equation having lb focus at 0 3?
There is not enough information. You need either the directrix or vertex (or some other item of information).
Is it correct to say focus on or focus to?
focus on is correct
What could be the equation of a parabola with its vertex at 1 3?
There are infinitely many equations; 4 possibilities are: y = x² + 2 y = 4 - x² x = y² - 8 x = 10 - y² Given the focus as well would give an exact equation.
What is the equation of the parabola with a vertex at -1-3?
2
What could be the equation of a parabola with its vertex at -3 2?
There are infinitely many equations; 4 possibilities are: y = x² - 7 y = 11 - x² x = y² - 7 x = 1 - y² Given the focus as well would give an exact equation.
