Wrong because you need to add the -2 to the 8.... I hope this helps
Answer:
A. 4x²+20x+25
Step-by-step explanation:
Because of PEMDAS, you calculate the value inside of the parenthesis first, so you expand [2x+1-(4x+6)]:
2x+1-4x-6 = -2x-5.
Then apply the exponent:
(-2x-5)² = (-2x-5)(-2x-5) = 4x²+10x+10x+25 = 4x²+20x+25
A conversion factor is a number used to change one set of units to another, by multiplying or dividing. When a conversion is necessary, the appropriate conversion factor to an equal value must be used. For example, to convert inches to feet, the appropriate conversion value is 12 inches equal 1 foot.
We have the equation

Let's complete the square, to do it let's add and subtract 25 on the right side

Now we can have y in function of x

Now we can already identify the vertex because it's in the vertex form:

Where the vertex is

As we can see, h = 5 and k = -2, then the vertex is

Now we can continue and find the focus, the focus is

We have a = 1/20, therefore

The focus is

And the last one, the directrix, it's

Then

Hence the correct answer is: vertex (5, -2); focus (5, 3); directrix y = -7
1) we calculate the area of the circular piece of metal.
area=πr²
area=π(3.5 m)²=12.25π m² ≈ 38.48 m²
2)we calculate the total cost of the circular piece of meta by the rule of three.
$3.25-------------------1 m²
x--------------------------38.48 m²
x=($3.25 * 38.48m²) / 1 m²=125.06$
Answer: 125.06$
We can also calcultate the total cost of the ciucular piece of metal by the ratius.
Ratius=$3.25/1m²
Total cost=ratius * area of the circular piece of metal.
total cost=($3.25/ m²)*(38.48 m²)=$125.06
Answer: $125.06
