Which image shows a plane slicing a double-napped cone to produce a hyperbola?

2 cones are stacked at their points. A horizontal plane goes through the center of a cone.

2 cones are stacked at their points. A plane goes diagonally through the center of a cone.

2 cones are stacked at their points. A plane goes diagonally along the sides of the cones.

2 cones are stacked at their points. A plane goes diagonally through both cones.

Which equation represents a parabola with its vertex at (1, –5) and its focus at (1, 0)?

= (x – 1)2

20(y + 5) = (x – 1)2

–20(y + 5) = (x – 1)2

= (x – 1)2

Which graph represents the parametric equations x = 1 – t2 and y = 2t, where 0 ≤ t ≤ 5?

On a coordinate plane, a curve starts at (1, 0) and curves up through (0, 2) to (negative 24, 10).

On a coordinate plane, a curve starts at (1, 0) and curves down through (0, negative 2) to (negative 24, negative 10).

On a coordinate plane, a curve starts at (1, 0) and curves down through (2, negative 2) to (26, negative 10).

On a coordinate plane, a curve starts at (1, 0) and curves up through (2, 2) to (26, 10).

Review the graph.

y ≤ x2 – 8 and x > y2 + 1

y ≥ x2 – 8 and x < y2 + 1

y ≤ x2 + 1 and x > y2 – 8

y ≥ x2 + 1 and x < y2 – 8

On a coordinate plane, a circle has center (0, 2) and radius 3. A parabola opens to the right and goes through (8, 8), has vertex (0, 0), and goes through (4, negative 6). Everything inside of the circle and inside of the parabola is shaded.

On a coordinate plane, a circle has center (2, 0) and radius 6. A parabola opens to the right and goes through (8, 8), has vertex (0, 0), and goes through (4, negative 6). Everything inside of the circle and outside of the parabola is shaded.

Option

Jason had to determine the solution set of . Examine the graph he drew.

The graph is correct.

The boundary should be a solid line.

The major axis should be horizontal.

The shaded region that represents the solution set should be inside the ellipse.
