Answer:

The number of pounds collected by Steve is 39-j

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

j----> the number of pounds collected by Joy

s ---> the number of pounds collected by Steve

we know that

j+s=39

Solve for s

That means-----> Isolate the variable s

Subtract j both sides

s=39-j

Which lines are the directrices of the ellipse?
algol [13]

The lines that are the directrices of the ellipse is B. x = −3.25 and x = 9.25.

<h3>How to calculate the ellipse? </h3>

From the information given, the equation of parabola will be:

= (x - 3)²/5² + (y - 2)²/3² = 1

Hence, h = 3, k = 2, a = 5, b = 3

e = ✓1 - ✓3²/5²

E = 4/5 = 0.8

The directix will be:

x = 3 + 5/0.8

x = 9.25

x = 3 - 5/0.8

x = -3.25

Therefore, lines that are the directrices of the ellipse is x = −3.25 and x = 9.25.

Find a formula for the inverse of the function. f(x)=1-2/x^3.
Elena-2011 [213]
       f(x) = 1 - ²/ₓ₃
          y = 1 - ²/ₓ₃
          y = 1 - ²/ₓ₃
      y - 1 = ⁻²/ₓ₃
      x - 1 = -2/y³
 y³(x - 1) = -2
         y³ = ⁻²/ₓ₋₁
          y = ∛⁻²/ₓ₋₁
          y = -∛(2x² - 4x + 2)/x - 1
      f⁻¹(x) = -∛(2x² - 4x + 2)/x - 1

Find the value of x.
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

2\sqrt{77}

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the Pythagorean theorem. a^{2} +b^{2}=c^{2}

a and b are the two side lengths

c is the hypotenuse (value across from the right angle)

Plug in the values that you are given.

a^{2} +4^{2} =18^{2}

Solve for x

x^{2} =18^{2} -4^{2}

x^{2} =308

x=\sqrt{308}

x=2\sqrt{77}
