<span> we have that
standard form of equation for parabola:
(x-h)^2=-4p(y-k)
(h,k) --------->being the (x,y) coordinates of the vertex.
Parabola opens downwards because focus is below vertex on the axis of symmetry.
For given problem:
</span><span>vertex: (-3,2)
axis of symmetry: x=-3
p=distance from vertex to focus on the axis of symmetry=2-(-1)=3
4p=12
Directrix: y=2+p=5
Equation:
(x+3)^2=-12(y-2)
the answer is </span>(x+3)^2=-12(y-2)
Please post the question ..i'll solve for x
Answer:
See below, please!
Step-by-step explanation:
To multiply a whole number by a fraction, set up both numbers so that they have a numerator and denominator, multiply the corresponding parts, and simplify.
Ex:
. Both of them are in fraction form, right? Now multiply the numerator and denominator together. Doing this, you get 16/6. Now simplify. Look for a common factor between both the numerator and denominator. We can see that one common factor is 2. So, our simplified fraction is 8/3.
Hope this helped!
First of all, the first power of 'x' is the highest power in the whole equation,
so we only expect one solution.
You said that <span><u>3x+9 = 21+7x </u>
Subtract 3x from each side:
9 = 21 + 4x
Subtract 21 from each side:
-12 = 4x
Divide each side by 4 :
<u>-3 = x </u>
