2/3*n-4 = 2*n

subtract 2/3 n from each side

-4 = 2n - 2/3 n

-4 = 6/3 n - 2/3 n

-4 = 4/3 n

multiply by 3/4 on each side

-4 * 3/4 = n

-3 = n

The number is -3

Answer:

n = -3


Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be n.  Then (2/3)n-4 = 2n.

Solve for n.  To accomplish this, start by mult. both sides by 3, to remove the fractional coefficient:  2n - 12 = 6 n, or -12 = 4n.  then n = -3 (answer)

What equation represents a parabola with a focus of (0,4) and a directrix of y=2
scZoUnD [109]
We know that

Any point <span>(x,y)</span> on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix

Therefore,

focus (0,4) and directrix of y=2

<span>√[<span>(x−0)</span></span>²+(y−4)²]=y−(2)

<span>√[x</span>²+(y-4)²]=y-2

x²+(y-4)²=(y-2)²

x²+y²-8y+16=y²-4y+4

x²=4y-12-----> 4y=x²+12----->y= (x²/4)+3


the answer is

y= (x²/4)+3
