8 - 5x <-2

8 (-8) - 5x < -2 (-8)

-5x < -10

-5x/-5 < -10/-5

x > 2            (flip the sign because you divided by a negative number

x = 3, 4, 5

your answer is 3, 4, 5

note that it isn't 2, because it isn't a ≥, which means that it cannot be 2

hope this helps

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (4,3) and a directrix of y=-6
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

f(x) = (1/18)x^2 - (4/9)x - 65/18

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the focus (4,3) is higher up than is the directrix y = -6, the vertex is between y = -6 and y = 3, halfway between these values, to be exact:  y = -3/2.  Thus, the y-coordinate of the vertex is (-6 + 3/2), or -4.5.  The x-coordinate of the vertex is 4, which comes from that 4 in (4,3).  Thus, the vertex is (4, -4.5) or (4, -4 1/2).

The standard equation for a vertical parabola with vertex at (h,k) is:

4p(y-k) = (x-h)^2, where p is the distance between vertex and focus or between vertex and directrix.  In this case p = 4.5.  Thus, the equation of this quadratic is 4(4.5)(y - [-4.5]) = (x - 4)^2, or

18(y+4.5) = (x-4)^2, or y+4.5 = (1/18)(x-4)^2.

Let's expand this and rewrite the result as a quadratic equation in standard form y = ax^2 + bx + c:

y + 4.5 = (1/18)(x^2 - 8x + 16).  Multiplying all terms by 18 to remove both fractions, we get:

18y + 81 = x^2 - 8x + 16.  Rearranging these terms, we get:

18y = x^2 - 8x + 16 - 81, or

18y = x^2 - 8x - 65, or

y = f(x) = (1/18)x^2 - (4/9)x - 65/18.

katrin [286]

Answer:1,750,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:first the number ten to the fifth power is 1,000,000 then times five is 5,000,000. Then the number ten to the negative fifth power is 50 times seven is 350. 5,000,000 times 350 is 1,750,000,000
