Need help with this question please!

I would say it is A because if you subtract <em>p,</em> the original price by $2.50, you would get <em>d, </em>the discounted price. Look at B u see that you're adding the discount which doesn't make sense. Looking at C, the discounted price of different prices can't always be the same. And finally, D, the discounted price is greater than the original. Also, if you subtract you would get different discounts.

Write an equation for a parabola in which the set of all points in the plane are equidistant from the focus and line. F(–2, 0);
UNO [17]
The line is called the directrix.  Here we have a vertical directrix, so a parabola sideways from usual.

Geometry is best done with squared distances.  The squared distance from an arbitrary point (x,y) to the vertical line x=2 is (x-2)^2.

We equate that to the squared distance of (x,y) to the focus (-2,0): 

(x-2)^2 = (x - -2)^2 + (y - 0)^2

x^2 -4x + 4=x^2 +4x +4 + y^2

-8x = y^2

We could call that done.  A more standard form might be

x =- \dfrac 1 8 \ y^2

Help Pls! I need this fast!
lesya [120]

Answer: 36

Step-by-step explanation:

\overline{AB} \cong \overline{BC} (Triangle ABC is isosceles)

m\angle CAB=m\angle CBA=30^{\circ} (base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent)

\angle MCB=90^{\circ} (In triangle CMB, angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees)

\angle ACM=30^{\circ} (triangle sum theorem)

MB=24 (30-60-90 triangle CMB)

AB=12 (sides opposite congruent angles in a triangle are congruent)

AB=36 (segment addition postulate)

What is R+G=20<br> 7R+3G=9
Troyanec [42]

Step-by-step explanation:

hope I understand your qyestion

Equation 1 : R+G=20

Equation 2 : 7R+3G=9

Multiply Equation by 3, it becomes

3R+3G=60 ...... Equation 3

Now Equation 3 minus Equation 2

-4R = 51

R = - 51/4

Sub R into Equation 1, you can find G
