Answer:
x = 3
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other into two equal segments. Therefore:
3x - 1 = 2(x + 1)
Solve for x
3x - 1 = 2x + 2
Collect like terms
3x - 2x = 1 + 2
x = 3
Also:
5y + 1 = 6y - 1
Collect like terms
5y - 6y = -1 - 1
-y = -2
Divide both sides by -1
y = -2/-1
y = 2
Answer:
The total number of members are 128 members
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, mixing the ratio of children to adult, we have ;
7:9
There are 16 more adult members
So if there are x children, then there are 16 + x adults
Thus, the total number of members will be;
16 + x + x = 2x + 16
Now, we have that;
7/16 * (2x + 16) = x
7(2x + 16) = 16x
14x + 112 = 16x
16x-14x = 112
2x = 112
x = 112/2
x = 56
The total number of members is thus;
2(56) + 16 = 128
For
(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)
vertex=(h,k)
p=vertical distance from vertex to directix
when p is negative, the directix is above the vertex
when p is positive, the directix is below the vertex
(x-2)^2=1/4(y+3)
(x-2)^2=4(1/16)(y+3)
p=1/16
it's positive so we know directix is below vertex
vertex is (2,-3)
go 1/16 down
-3-1/16=-48/16-1/16=-49/16
directix is y=-49/16 aka y=-3.0625
