select any conic section (other than a circle). answer the questions in this task as they relate to the conic section you chose.
1. in your own words, define the conic section you chose as a collection of points (loci) on a plane.
2. assuming you know the coordinates of the key points (vertex, foci, directrix), explain how to graph the functions of the conic section you chose using your definition of it.

The parabola opens: y=√x-4 (principal square root) up down right left

Complete the solution of the equation. find the value of y when x equals to 6 4x+y=20

In new york city at the spring equinox there are 12 hours 8 minutes of daylight. the longest and shortest days of the year very by two hours and 53 minutes from the equinox in this year the equinox falls on march 21 in this task you use trigonometric function to model the hours of daylight hours on certain days of the year in new york city a.what is the independent and dependent variables? b.find the amplitude and the period of the function. c.create a trigonometric function that describes the hours of sunlight for each day of the year. d. graph the function you build in part c. e. use the function you build in part c to find out how many fewer daylight hours february 10 will have than march 21. you may look at the calendar.
