The equation should have been written as 1.25x+1.49y=100.

The error made in the first equation was that Barbara did not include a variable next to the term 1.49. Since the ice tea is sold for $1.49 per bottle, a variable should be included to represent however many bottles of iced tea she sold.

She should also ave "variabled" the number 1.49 but with a different variable leaving the correct equation as:

1.25x + 149y = 100

Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 1) and a directrix of y = 5?
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The equation of the quadratic graph is f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3 (second option)

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus: F=(3,1)=(xf, yf)→xf=3, yf=1

Directrix: y=5 (horizontal line), then the axis of the parabola is vertical, and the equation has the form:

f(x)=[1 / (4p)] (x-h)^2+k

where Vertex: V=(h,k)

The directix y=5 must intercept the axis of the parabola at the point (3,5), and the vertex is the midpoint between this point and the focus:

Vertex is the midpoint between (3,5) and (3,1):

h=(3+3)/2→h=6/2→h=3

k=(5+1)/2→k=6/2→k=3

Vertex: V=(h,k)→V=(3,3)

p=yf-k→p=1-3→p=-2

Replacing the values in the equation:

f(x)= [ 1 / (4(-2)) ] (x-3)^2 + 3

f(x)=[ 1 / (-8) ] (x-3)^2 + 3

f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3

PLEASE HELP ME!

If 450 is 1/4 of the amount that Henry has, you can find Henry’s amount by multiplying 450 • 4 which gives you an answer of 1800

Or, if you’re looking for a more complicated way, which I doubt, you can set up the problem as:

1/4x=450 and solve by dividing 450 by 1/4
