The standard form: Ax + By = C
y = 90 - 15x <em>add 15x to both sides</em>
<h3>15x + y = 90</h3>
Answer:
x=70
Step-by-step explanation:
Turn the information into coordinate points.
Point = (time, population)
Point 1 = (1985, 45000)
Point 2 = (2004 , 26000)
Find the slope between these points using the formula
( Slope)—> m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
26000-45000/2004-1985=-19000/19= -1000
Average rate of change is decrease of 1000 sea lion per year

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The directrix is a vertical line, so the parabola is horizontal. The focus lies to the left of the directrix, so the parabola opens to the left.
For a left-opening parabola:
x = a(y-k)²+h,
a < 0,
vertex (h,k)
focal length p = 1/|4a|
focus (h-p, k)
directrix: x=h+p
Apply your data
focus (1,-4)
directrix x=2
vertex (1.5,-4).
focal length p = 0.5
a = -1/|4p| = -½
x = -½(y-2)²+ ½
Think about it this way:
26 * 19 = ?
(26 + 10) x (26 + 9)
Hope this helps
