Which expressions represent the distances from the point (x, y) to the focus and the directrix? |y−7|
|y+7|
√(x + 2)^2 + (y − 5)^2
√(x − 3)^2 + (y + 2)^2
√(x + 2)^2 + (y − 3)^2
|x−7|

The answer is

The distance from the point (x,y) to the focus, (−2,3), is (x + 2)^2+(y − 3)^2. The distance from the point (x,y) to the directrix, y=7, is |y−7|.

i think this could be a possible answer (1 / 84) -1

good luck! : d

5x+40

5(x + 8)

7x - 49

7(x - 7)

18x + 9

9(2x + 1)

15x - 10

5(3x - 2)

step-by-step explanation:

for number one all you have to do is factor 5 out of 5x + 40

for number 2 factor 7 out of 7x - 49

for number three factor 9 out of 18x + 9

for number four factor 5 out of 15x - 10
