Answer:
1996
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the number of terms in an arithmetic sequence, divide the common difference into the difference between the last and first terms, and then add 1.
2008 - 13 = 1995 + 1 = 1996
Answer:
y = - 
(x - 1)² + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Any point (x, y) on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix.
Using the distance formula
= | y - 6 |
Square both sides
(x - 1)² + (y + 2)² = (y - 6)² ( expand the factors in y )
(x - 1)² + y² + 4y + 4 = y² - 12y + 36 ( subtract y² - 12y from both sides )
(x - 1)² + 16y + 4 = 36 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
(x - 1)² + 16y = 32 ← subtract (x - 1)² from both sides )
16y = - (x - 1)² + 32 ( divide all terms by 16 )
y = - (x - 1)² + 2
Answer:
(1,0) & (2,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute x-1 for y in the first equation then solve using the PEMDAS and traditional rules
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of stamps from Europe.
Let y represent the number of stamps from Africa.
Let z represent the number of stamps from Asia.
She has 47 stamps in all. This means that
x + y + z = 47 - - - - - - - - - - - 1
The number of African stamps is 2 times the number of Asian stamps. This means that
y = 2z
She has 20 stamps from Europe. Therefore, substituting x = 20 and y = 2z into equation 1, it becomes
20 + 2z + z = 47
3z = 47 - 20 = 27
z = 27/3 = 9
y = 2z = 2 × 9
y = 18
She has 20 stamps from Europe, 18 stamps from Africa and 9 stamps Asia.
