Which expression is equivalent to 1/2 (2+ 3x – 6)?
3x - 5
3/2x - 5
3x – 4
3/2x - 2
The Answer Is B
The initial amount, (original starting amount) is 18,000.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the formula [ y2-y1/x2-x1 ] to solve.
7-1/2-0
6/2
3
Best of Luck!
You might have made an error the first time you solved for x. I got x = -0.5.
When you have your log base 4, the way you cancel that out is by making 4 the base on both sides, so you get 4^(log4) to reduce to 1, and you're left with:
2x + 3 = 4^(1/2) ... Simplify
2x + 3 = 2
2x = -1
x = -1/2
If you plug that back in, everything checks out. Maybe double check your use of logarithm/exponent properties?
<span> we have that
standard form of equation for parabola:
(x-h)^2=-4p(y-k)
(h,k) --------->being the (x,y) coordinates of the vertex.
Parabola opens downwards because focus is below vertex on the axis of symmetry.
For given problem:
</span><span>vertex: (-3,2)
axis of symmetry: x=-3
p=distance from vertex to focus on the axis of symmetry=2-(-1)=3
4p=12
Directrix: y=2+p=5
Equation:
(x+3)^2=-12(y-2)
the answer is </span>(x+3)^2=-12(y-2)
