Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Complete the square on the right side of the equation.

5 ( x − 1 )2 − 18

2. Use the vertex form,  y = a ( x − h ) 2 + k , to determine the values of  a ,  h , and  k . a= 5 h = 1 k = − 18

3. Since the value of  a  is positive, the parabola opens up.

Opens Up

4. Find the vertex  ( h , k ) . ( 1 , − 18 )

5. Find  p , the distance from the vertex to the focus.

1 /20

6. Find the focus.

7. ( 1 , − 359/ 20 )

8. Find the axis of symmetry by finding the line that passes through the vertex and the focus.

ANSWER: x = 1

Add: 3x(x-y+z) and 2y (x+y-z)​
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

3x^2 + 3xz + 2y^2 - 2yz - xy

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) multiply it to get

3x^2 - 3xy + 3xz and 2yx + 2y^2 - 2yz

add similar variables (-3xy + 2yx)

( the order of the variables doesn't matter xy or yx is the same)

we get -xy

and then after that simplifying we get 3x^2 + 3xz + 2y^2 - 2yz - xy
