Check the picture below.
now, let's keep in mind that, the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix, it's a "p" distance from each other.
since this horizontal parabola is opening to the left-hand-side, "p" is negative, notice in the picture, "p" is 2 units, and since it's negative, p = -2.
its vertex is half-way between those two guys, so that puts the vertex at (-5, 3)

5m − 3h = 45
Subtract 5m from both sides
-3h = 45 - 5m
Divide both sides by -3
h = (45 - 5m)/ -3
h = -15 + 5m/3

1.00 + 2.50 + 2.50 + 2.50 = 8.5
Answer: Please see explanation column for answer.
x= -36
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
from the attachment, Mai's solving is given as
1/3 (1/2x- 9) = 1/2 (x+18)
1/6x-3= 1/2x+9
1/4x-3=9
1/4x=12
x=48
Mai's error started when he subtracted wrongly 1/2 x from 1/6x which gave him 1/4 x instead of - 1/3 x.
Solving correctly, we have that
1/3(1/2x-9) = 1/2(x+18)
1/6x -3= 1/2x+ 9
taking like terms to like terms
1/6x-1/2x= 9+3
(1-3)/6x= 12
-2/6x= 12
-1/3x= 12
multiplying both sides by -3
-1/3x X -3 = 12 X -3
x= -36
Answer: 5 (7.50-3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Previous price of calculator = $7.50
Number of client =5
Total price = (Number of calculators) x (Price for each calculator)
Total price of 5 calculators = (5 x $7.50)
New price of calculator = $5.00
Number of client =3
Total price of 3 calculators = (3 x $5)
Price will receive = (Total price of 5 calculators) -(Total price of 3 calculators )
= (5 x $7.50) - (3 x $5)
= 5 (7.50-3 )
Required expression: 5 (7.50-3 )
