Parabolas like $y=ax^2$ have the y-axis as their symmetry axis, so options B and D are surely wrong.

Moreover, parabolas like $x=ay^2$ have the x-axis as their symmetry axis. If $a>0$ the parabola is concave rightwards, if $a$ the parabola is concave leftwards.

Since your parabola is concave leftwards, the only feasible option is $x=-2y^2$

All you need to do here is just find the ratio of red marbles to all of the marbles.

2 red + 3 blue + 5 yellow + 2 green

when you add everything up, you get 2/12, which is equal to 1/6.

Two linear equations are shown.

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

x = 7; y = 4 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is the point of intersection of the lines.

Read the point of intersection.

You can also solve the system using algebra.

y = 1/3 x + 2

y = 4/3 x - 5

1/3 x + 2 = 4/3 x - 5

x + 6 = 4x - 15

-3x = -21

x = 7

y = 1/3 x + 2

y = 1/3 × 7 + 2

y = 2 1/3 + 2

y = 4 1/3

Answer: x = 7; y = 4 1/3

X-(9x-10)+11=12x+3(-2x+ 1/3)

morpeh [17]

X - (9x - 10) + 11 = 12x + 3(-2x + $\frac{1}{3}$ ) equals x = $\frac{10}{7}$ .

First, simplify brackets. / Your problem should look like: x - 9x + 10 + 11 = 12x + 3(-2x + $\frac{1}{3}$ ).
Second, simplify x - 9x + 10 + 11 to -8x + 10 + 11. / Your problem should look like: -8x + 10 + 11 = 12x + 3(-2x + $\frac{1}{3}$ ).
Third, simplify -8x + 10 + 11 to -8x + 21. / Your problem should look like: -8x + 21 = 12x + 3(-2x + $\frac{1}{3}$ ).
Fourth, expand. / Your problem should look like: -8x + 21 = 12x - 6x + 1.
Fifth, simplify 12x - 6x + 1 to 6x + 1./ Your problem should look like: -8x + 21 = 6x + 1.
Sixth, add 8x to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 21 = 6x + 1 + 8x.
Seventh, simplify 6x + 1 + 8x to 14x + 1. / Your problem should look like: 21 = 14x + 1.
Eighth, subtract 1 from both sides. / Your problem should look like: 21 - 1 = 14x.
Ninth, simplify 21 - 1 to 20. / Your problem should look like: 20 = 14x.
Tenth, divide both sides by 14. / Your problem should look like: $\frac{20}{14}$ = x.
Eleventh, simplify $\frac{20}{14}$ to $\frac{ 10}{7}$ . / Your problem should look like: $\frac{10}{7}$ = x.
Twelfth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: x = $\frac{10}{7}$ which is your answer.
