All you need to do is pull out the common factor of
:
Since the 37 is negative the parabola will open downward.
The coefficient on the outside of the ^2 tells you if it opens up or down. If it's positive it opens upward and if it's negative it opens downward.
For the parabola to open sideways it would be a form of x = y^2
Answer:
I think the answer is P(x>178)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: x=−3
Step-by-step explanation: Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
2
3
(3x+9)=−2(2x+6)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
2
3
(3x+9)=−2(2x+6)
(
2
3
)(3x)+(
2
3
)(9)=(−2)(2x)+(−2)(6)(Distribute)
2x+6=−4x+−12
2x+6=−4x−12
Step 2: Add 4x to both sides.
2x+6+4x=−4x−12+4x
6x+6=−12
Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.
6x+6−6=−12−6
6x=−18
Step 4: Divide both sides by 6.
6x

=
−18
