Solve for x in the equation p(m+qx)=rx+n

katrin [286]

$p(m+qx)=rx+n\\\\\implies pm+pqx = rx+n\\\\\implies pqx-rx = n-pm\\\\\implies x(pq -r) = n-pm\\\\\implies x = \dfrac{n-pm}{pq-r}$

What is the focus of the parabola?<br><br> y=−14x2−2x−2

nataly862011 [7]

First, we need to transform the equation into its standard form (x - h)²=4p(y - k).
Using completing the square method:

y = -14x² - 2x - 2
y = -14(x² + 2x/14) - 2
y = -14(x² + 2x/14 + (2/28)²) -2 + (2/28)²
y = -14(x + 1/14)² - 391/196
-1/14(y + 391/196) = (x + 1/14)²

This is a vertical parabola and its focus <span>(h, k + p) is (-1/14, -391/196 + 1/56) = (-1/14, -775/392).

Or (-0.071,-1.977).</span>

A total of 600 advertisements were sold for a certain magazine. If 30 percent of the first 200 sold were in color, 20 percent of

solong [7]

Answer:

%35 of them were in color

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 30 percent of the first 200 sold were in color, 200x30/100 = 60 of them were in color.

Since 20 percent of the next 300 sold were in color, 300x20/100 = 60 of them were in color.

Since 90 percent of the last 100 sold were in color, 100x90/100 = 90 of them were in color.

In total, 60 + 60 + 90 = 210 out of 600 were in color.

The percentage is: $\frac{600}{100}$ = $\frac{210}{x}$ → x = $\frac{21000}{600}$ = 35
