Answer:

Focus of the given parabola is (-3,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of parabola is:

y² = -12x

Standard equation of parabola is :

y² = 4px

Parabola opens right or left.

Focus of this parabola is (p,0)

y² = -12x is opens left.

y² = 4(-3)x

Here value of p = -3

So, the focus of given parabola is : (-3,0)

That's the final answer.

I hope its help you.

Which is 2logx - 6 log(x-9) written as a single logarithm.

Anton [14]

Answer: option c

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you must keep on mind the properties of logarithms:

$log(b)-log(a)=log(\frac{b}{a})\\\\log(b)+log(a)=log(ba)\\\\a*log(b)=log(b)^a$

Therefore, knowing the properties, you can write the expression gven in the problem as shown below:

$2logx-6log(x-9)\\logx^2-log(x-9)^6\\\\log\frac{x^2}{(x-9)^6}$

Phone Company A charges a monthly fee of $42.50, and $0.02 for each minute talk time. Phone company B charges a monthly fee of $

Y_Kistochka [10]

We need to call for x minute
+ Phone Company A charges a monthly fee of $42.50, and $0.02 for each minute talk time. So we have to spend: $42.50+ $0.02x
+ Phone company B charges a monthly fee of $25.00, and $0.09 for each minute of talk time. So we have to spend: $25.00+ $0.09x

We solve for x: $42.50+ $0.02x> $25.00+ $0.09x
or $42.50- $25.00 > $0.09x- $0.02x
and we have $0.07x<$27.50
or x< 27.50:0.07 and x< 393.86

The answer is:
If we have to call much time, at least 394 minutes, we should choose A
If not, choose B
