8x-12=36

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

<span><span><span>8x</span>−12</span>=36

</span>Step 1: Add 12 to both sides.

<span><span><span><span>8x</span>−12</span>+12</span>=<span>36+12

</span></span><span><span>8x</span>=48

</span>Step 2: Divide both sides by 8.

<span><span><span>8x/</span>8</span>=<span>48/8

</span></span><span>x=6

</span>Answer: x=6

Given that D(x) = 2x, select all of the following that are true statements
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

D(x) is a function

D(x) is a direct variation

D(x) is a rule for the set of points (5.10). (6, 12) and (-2,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem

D(x)=2x

D(x) is a direct variation (linear function)

The variable x is the independent variable or input value

The variable D(x) is the dependent variable or output value

<u><em>Verify each statement</em></u>

case 1) D(x) is a function

The statement is true

see the explanation

case 2) x is the dependent variable

The statement is false

The variable x is the independent variable or input value

case 3) D(x) is a direct variation

The statement is true

see the explanation

case 4) D(x) is a rule for the set of points (5.10). (6, 12) and (-2,-4)

The statement is true

Because

For x=5

substitute in the linear equation

D(x)=2(5)=10 ---> is ok

For x=6

substitute in the linear equation

D(x)=2(6)=12 ---> is ok

For x=-2

substitute in the linear equation

D(x)=2(-2)=-4 ---> is ok

The directrix of a parabola is y=−4y=−4 . The focus of the parabola is (−2,−2)(−2,−2) .
salantis [7]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The directrix is y = -4 and the focus is (-2, -2).
Therefore the vertex is at (-2, -3).

Consider an arbitrary point (x,y) on the parabola.
The square of distance from the focus to the point is
(x+2)² + (y+2)²
The square of the distance from the point to the directrix is
(y+4)²

Therefore
(y+4)² = (y+2)² + (x+2)²
y² + 8y + 16 = y² + 4y + 4 + (x+2)²
4y = (x+2)² - 12
y = (1/4)(x+2)² - 3

Answer: y =  \frac{1}{4} (x+2)^{2} - 3
