Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a.18/-3 = (-6)

b. -5/-1 = 5

c. 24/-6 = (-4)

d. -10/-1 = 10

e. -25/5 =(-5)

f. 8/-2 = (-4)

In multiplication and division, if there are are odd number of negative signs, the result will have negative sign.

If there are even number of negative signs, the the result will have positive sign

Solve for x 78.2+0.5x=287

diamong [38]

1. move 78.2 over to the over side. This will give you 287-78.2.

2. when you have .5x = 208.8, divide both sides by .5

3. this should give you x= 417.6

4. make sure to check your work by plugging you answer back into x.

Find the vertex and length of the latus rectum for the parabola. y=1/6(x-8)^2+6

Ivan

Step-by-step explanation:

If the parabola has the form

$y = a(x - h)^2 + k$ (vertex form)

then its vertex is located at the point (h, k). Therefore, the vertex of the parabola

$y = \dfrac{1}{6}(x - 8)^2 + 6$

is located at the point (8, 6).

To find the length of the parabola's latus rectum, we need to find its focal length <em>f</em>. Luckily, since our equation is in vertex form, we can easily find from the focus (or focal point) coordinate, which is

$\text{focus} = (h, k +\frac{1}{4a})$

where $\frac{1}{4a}$ is called the focal length or distance of the focus from the vertex. So from our equation, we can see that the focal length <em>f</em> is
