Answer:
focus: (0, -5.5)
directrix: y = 5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation compares to the form ...
x² = 4py
where 4p = -22 ⇒ p = -22/4 = -5.5.
The value of p is the distance from the vertex to the focus. The negative value means the focus is below the vertex at (0, -5.5).
The directrix is above the vertex by the same amount, so is y = 5.5.
Answer:
<h2>The easiest to solve for is x in the first equation</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the system of equation, x + 4 y = 14. and 3 x + 2 y = 12, to solve for x, we can use the elimination method of solving simultaneous equation. We need to get y first.
x + 4 y = 14............ 1 * 3
3 x + 2 y = 12 ............ 2 * 1
Lets eliminate x first. Multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract from equation 2.
3x + 12 y = 42.
3 x + 2 y = 12
Taking the diffrence;
12-2y =42 - 12
10y = 30
y = 3
From equation 1, x = 14-4y
x = 14-4(3)
x = 14-12
x = 2
It can be seen that the easiest way to get the value of x is by using the first equation and we are able to do the substitute easily <u>because the variable x has no coefficient in equation 1 compare to equation 2 </u>as such it will be easier to make the substitute for x in the first equation.
Answer:
-5 5/10, -32/40,5
whenever a number has a negative sign,the larger the number the smaller.
i.e (-55/10= -5.5) is smaller than -32/40=-0.8 and then the greatest is 5 since it is a positive number and positive numbers are greater than negative numbers.
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
81^x = 27 ^(x+2)
81 = 3^4 and 27 =3^3 so replace 81 and 27 in the equation
3^4^x = 3^3^(x+2)
When we have a power to a power we can multiply the exponents
a ^b^c = a^(b*c)
3^(4x) = 3^(3*(x+2))
Since the bases are the same, the exponents have to be the same
a^b = a^c means b=c
4x = 3(x+2)
Now we can solve for x
Distribute
4x = 3x+6
Subtract 3x from each side
4x-3x = 3x-3x+6
x = 6
