The equation of the directrix of the parabola given is x = 6, Option D is the correct answer.

<h3>What is Directrix of a Parabola ?</h3>

A parabola is a U shaped curve whose all point are at same distnace from a  point called as focus and a line called as Directrix .

The equation of the parabola given is

y² = -24x

When the standard equation of parabola is

 (y - k)² = 4p (x - h),

where the focus is (h + p, k) and the directrix is x = h - p.

here h = 0

p = -24/4 = -6

x =  0 - (-6)

x = 6

Therefore Option D is the correct answer.

Solve 7+x÷3=2x-5 pls help me with this
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

4.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the question out as an equation:

7+x/3 = 2x - 5

Rearrange , simplify and solve:

7+x = 3(2x-5) = 6x - 15

7+x = 6x-15

6x - 15 = 7+x

6x = 7+x+15 = 22+x

6x = 22+x

6x-x = 22

5x = 22

x = 4.4

hope this helps.

Good Luck.
