Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Casey has some number of video games at the beginning called x. He sells half which is 1/2 x. Then he buys 3 more so 1/2 x + 3. This is equal to his current amount which is 27. So 1/2 x + 3 = 27. Solve for x.

1/2 x + 3 = 27

1/2 x =24

x = 48

ABCD is a rectangle. Find the length of each diagonal.ac=2(5a+1) bd=2(a+1).
Igoryamba
   
Rectangle diagonals are equal.

2(5a+1) = 2(a+1)
10a + 2 = 2a + 2
10a -2a = 2 - 2
8a = 0
⇒ a = 0

AC = 2(5a+1)  = 2(5 × 0 +1)= 2(0 + 1) = 2 × 1 = 2 <span> 
</span>BD = 2(a+1) = 2(0 + 1) = 2 <span>× 1 = 2
</span>
Ansver:   AC = BD = 2

Math - algebra (9th grade) please include work
Naily [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Y)  \frac{x+4}{8} = 3

*multiply both sides by 8 - cancels out 8 in denominator*

x + 4 = 24

*subtract 4 from both sides*

x = 20

E) \frac{x-5}{2} = 1

*multiply both sides by 2 - cancels out 2 in denominator*

x - 5 = 2

*add 5 on both sides*

x = 7

N) \frac{x+2}{4} = 2

* multiply both sides by 4 - cancels out 4 in denominator*

x + 2 = 8

*subtract 2 from both sides*

x = 6

A parabola can be represented by the equation y2 = –x. What are the coordinates of the focus and the equation of the directrix?
shutvik [7]

ANSWER

Focus:

(- \frac{1}{4} ,0)

Directrix:

x=\frac{1}{4}

EXPLANATION

The given parabola has equation:

{y}^{2}  =  - x

We compare this to the general equation,

{y}^{2}  =  - 4px

Comparing the coefficient of x, we have:

-4p=-1

p =  \frac{1}{4}

The focus is (-p,0)

(- \frac{1}{4} ,0)

The equation of the directrix is

x=p

x =  \frac{1}{4}

x=5/3

x= 3+2\sqrt{2}

x=  3-2\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

if graphed the x intercepts would be (5/3 , 0) (3+2\sqrt{2} ) (3-2\sqrt{2})

y intercepts (0,-5)
