Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since B is the midpoint, that means segment AB has to be the same length as BC.

Therefore:

2(3x-1)=8x-20

6x-2=8x-20

18=2x

9=x

Write the equation of a parabola with a vertex and (-5, 2) and a directrix y = -1
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

y=(x+5)²/6 + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula to plug in the values you know:

√(y+1)² =√(x+5)² +( y-2)²

the square roots cancel out

(y+1) ²= (x+5)² +(y-2)²

(y+1) (y-1)= (x+5)² + (y-2) (y-2)

y²+2y+1= (x+5)² + y² -4y+4

the y² cancel out

2y+ 4y = (x+5)² + 4-1

6y= (x+5)² +3

y= (x+5)² /6+ 1/3

A line passes through the points (4, 19) and (9, 24). Write A linear function in the form Y equals MX plus be for this line.
avanturin [10]

Answer:

y = x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

okay so you're gonna use the y2-y1/x2-x1 formula to find the slope (m)

24 - 19/9 - 4 = 5/5 = 1

so that is your slope (m)

and now if you follow your slope then you should get your y-intercept (b)

4 - 1 = 3      19 - 1 = 18

(3, 18)

3 - 1 = 2      18 - 1 = 17

(2, 17)

2 - 1 = 1       17 - 1 = 16

(1, 16)

1 - 1 = 0       16 - 1 = 15

(0, 15)

so thats your y-intercept (b)

and the equation will look like:

y = mx + b          y = x + 15  or    y = 1x + 15 (but the 1 isn't necessary)
