Refer to the diagram shown below.

The right vertex is at (14, -1), and the center is at (-1, -1).
Therefore the semi-major axis is
a = 14 - (-1) = 15

The right focus is at (8, -1).
Therefore
c = 8 - (-1) = 9.

The distance of the directrix from the center is
d = c²/a = 9²/15 = 81/15 = 27/5.

Therefore the equation for the left directrix is
x = -1 - 27/5 = -32/5

Answer: x = -27/5

stich3 [128]

Answer:

You can buy 7 waffle cones.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let sundae = x

Let waffle cones = y

4.25x + 3.75y ≤ 50

4.25 (5) + 3.75y ≤ 50

21.25 + 3.75y ≤ 50

3.75y ≤ 28.75

y ≤ 7.666666666

* round to the nearest whole to get 7

HELP ASAP PLZ
WARRIOR [948]
You can use the formula to solve for the y-values in the table. Insert the x-value into the equation: y = 2x - 2

(ex. y = 2(1)-2)

So..

x | y

0 | -2

1 | 0

3 | 4

5 | 8

8 | 14

10 | 18
