Answer:

-105

Step-by-step explanation:

Substituting is like "plug and chug", so we can plug in -2 into the expression and get $(13 - 4(-2))((-2)^2+5(-2)+1)$ , which simplifies into 21*-5, or -105. $\blacksquare$

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

-105

Discussion:

(13-4x) (x ^2 + 5x + 1) = => substitute x = -2

(13 - 4(-2) ) ( (-2)^2 + 5(-2) + 1 ) =

(13 + 8) ( 4 -10 + 1) =

(21) ( -5) = - 105

Thank you,

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-3)/2 = 9

x - 3 = 18

x = 21

(y-5)/2= 6

y - 5 = 12

y = 17

(21, 17)

Solve for x: 2x + 13 = 8x - 41

Answer:

9 is your answer for x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operations, & =

Parenthesis

Exponent (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, subtract 13 & 8x from both sides:

2x (-8x) + 13 (-13) = 8x (-8x) - 41 (-13)

2x - 8x = -41 - 13

Simplify. Combine like terms:

-6x = -54

Isolate the variable, x. Divide -6 from both sides:

(-6x)/-6 = (-54)/-6

x = (-54)/(-6)

x = 9

x = 9 is your answer.

An ellipse is represented by the equation <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B%28y-3%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%7B169%20%7D%20%2

Answer:

C. horizontal line that is 33.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your equation should be ...

$\dfrac{(y-3)^2}{169}+\dfrac{(x+6)^2}{144}=1$

The largest denominator in this standard-form equation of an ellipse is under the y-term, so the major axis is vertical. The directrix will be a horizontal line.

The distance from the center to the directrix is always longer than the semi-major axis, so will be more than √169 = 13. This only leaves choice C.

If "c" is the center-to-focus distance, it will be the root of the difference of the denominators in the equation:

c = √(169 -144) = 5

For semi-major axis "a", the distance from the center to the directrix is ...

a²/c = (13²)/5 = 33.8 . . . . . matches choice C
