Complete the sentence.
Over [174]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal asymtote is when there are no solutions for x, so it is when y = -10.

This is because when y = -10, 0.8^x must be 0, but this is impossible. You can test this by trying 4^x/5^x. It will get super small, but never 0.

Solve the system by substitution
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

(-5, -30)

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the equation:

y = 6x

y = -4x - 50

Since both of them are equal to y, we can substitute the 6x into y. So:

6x = -4x - 50

Now we can solve for x. Add 4x to both sides...

6x = -4x - 50

+4x   +4x

10x = -50

Now, divide both sides by 10.

<u>10x</u> = <u>-50</u>

10      10

x = -5

So, we now know that x is -5. Now we know this, we can substitute -5 where we see x. It works in both equations, so I will do both.

y = 6(-5)

y = -30

And...

y = -4(-5) - 50

y = 20 - 50

y = -30

As you can see, both equations show that y = -30. To check our work, let's plug in the values.

-30 = 6(-5)

-30 = -30

Also:

-30 = -4(-5) - 50

-30 = -20 - 50

-30 = -30

So, we can see that both of the equations gave us the same answer. So, our answer is x = -5 and y = -30, so the ordered pair is: (-5, -30). Hope this helps you!

A parabola can be drawn given a focus of (6,-1) and a directrix of y = 9. What can be said about the parabola?​
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Since the focus is at (-6,-11) and the directrix is at y=9:

 

The vertex is halfway between the focus and the directrix, so the vertex is at (-6,-1).  (Draw this on graph paper if that doesn't make sense.)

 

The general form (conics form) of a parabola:  4p(y-k)=(x-h)^2 (vertex is (h,k) and "p" is the distance between the focus and vertex (or between vertex and directrix)).

 

(h,k) = (-6,-1)

 

p = 10 (distance between focus and vertex), so 4p = 40.

 

Therefore:

 

40(y+1)=(x+6)^2

 

Or if you need to rearrange to "vertex form":  y=(1/40)(x+6)^2 - 1
