25(z + 2) = 125

apply distributive property

25z + 50 = 125

subtraction property of equality

25z = 75

division property of equality

z = 3

Answer is z = 3

I don't see any matching from the options.

$25^{z+2}=125\\\\(5^2)^{z+2}=5^3\\\\5^{2(z+2)}=5^3\\\\2(z+2)=3\qquad|:2\\\\\\z+2=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\\\z=\dfrac{3}{2}-2\\\\\\\boxed{z=-\frac{1}{2}=-0.5}$

How to find the vertex calculus 2What is the vertex, focus and directrix of x^2 = 6y

son4ous [18]

Solution:

Given:

$x^2=6y$

Part A:

The vertex of an up-down facing parabola of the form;

$\begin{gathered} y=ax^2+bx+c \\ is \\ x_v=-\frac{b}{2a} \end{gathered}$

Rewriting the equation given;

$\begin{gathered} 6y=x^2 \\ y=\frac{1}{6}x^2 \\ \\ \text{Hence,} \\ a=\frac{1}{6} \\ b=0 \\ c=0 \\ \\ \text{Hence,} \\ x_v=-\frac{b}{2a} \\ x_v=-\frac{0}{2(\frac{1}{6})} \\ x_v=0 \\ \\ _{} \\ \text{Substituting the value of x into y,} \\ y=\frac{1}{6}x^2 \\ y_v=\frac{1}{6}(0^2) \\ y_v=0 \\ \\ \text{Hence, the vertex is;} \\ (x_v,y_v)=(h,k)=(0,0) \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the vertex is (0,0)

Part B:

A parabola is the locus of points such that the distance to a point (the focus) equals the distance to a line (directrix)

Using the standard equation of a parabola;

$\begin{gathered} 4p(y-k)=(x-h)^2 \\ \\ \text{Where;} \\ (h,k)\text{ is the vertex} \\ |p|\text{ is the focal length} \end{gathered}$

Rewriting the equation in standard form,

$\begin{gathered} x^2=6y \\ 6y=x^2 \\ 4(\frac{3}{2})(y-k)=(x-h)^2 \\ \text{putting (h,k)=(0,0)} \\ 4(\frac{3}{2})(y-0)=(x-0)^2 \\ Comparing\text{to the standard form;} \\ p=\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

Since the parabola is symmetric around the y-axis, the focus is a distance p from the center (0,0)

Hence,

$\begin{gathered} Focus\text{ is;} \\ (0,0+p) \\ =(0,0+\frac{3}{2}) \\ =(0,\frac{3}{2}) \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the focus is;

$(0,\frac{3}{2})$

Part C:

A parabola is the locus of points such that the distance to a point (the focus) equals the distance to a line (directrix)

Using the standard equation of a parabola;

$\begin{gathered} 4p(y-k)=(x-h)^2 \\ \\ \text{Where;} \\ (h,k)\text{ is the vertex} \\ |p|\text{ is the focal length} \end{gathered}$

Rewriting the equation in standard form,

Since the parabola is symmetric around the y-axis, the directrix is a line parallel to the x-axis at a distance p from the center (0,0).

Hence,

$\begin{gathered} Directrix\text{ is;} \\ y=0-p \\ y=0-\frac{3}{2} \\ y=-\frac{3}{2} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the directrix is;

$y=-\frac{3}{2}$
