C: none of these are solutions to the given equation.

• If y(x) = e², then y is constant and y' = 0. Then y' - y = -e² ≠ 0.

• If y(x) = x, then y' = 1, but y' - y = 1 - x ≠ 0.

The actual solution is easy to find, since this equation is separable.

y' - y = 0

dy/dx = y

dy/y = dx

∫ dy/y = ∫ dx

ln|y| = x + C

y = exp(x + C )

y = C exp(x) = C eˣ

Answer:

$-\frac{77}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. rewrite the equation in standard form: $4\cdot \frac{3}{2}\left(y-\left(-\frac{41}{24}\right)\right)=\left(x-\left(-\frac{3}{2}\right)\right)^2$

2. find (h,k), the vertex. the vertex is $\left(h,\:k\right)=\left(-\frac{3}{2},\:-\frac{41}{24}\right)$

3. find the 'focal length' of the parabola - the focal length is the distance between the vertex and the focus. from the vertex we can see that the focal length, p, = 3/2

4. Parabola is symmetric around the y-axis and so the asymptote is a line parallel to the x-axis, a distance p from the $\left(-\frac{3}{2},\:-\frac{41}{24}\right)$ y coordinate which is at $-\frac{41}{24}\right)$ . Set up the equation:
