You saved $140 on your new laptop because you bought it online. If this was a 20% savings from the original price, Find the orig

Elenna [48]

Let the original cost of laptop=x
Savings=20% = 20/100
Saved amount = $140
Original cost = saved amount * 1/savings
x = 140* 100/20
x = $7000

1. We can conclude that the result of the division is $x-13$ with a remainder of $4x-9$ , or in other notation: $x-13+ \frac{4x-9}{x^2+3}$ . Check the steps in the first image.

3. We can conclude that the result of the division is $x^{2} +6x+3$ with a remainder of 2, or in other notation: $x^{2}+6x+3+ \frac{2}{x-1}$ . Check the steps in the firts image.

5. We can conclude that the result of the division is $x+1$ with a remainder of 5, or in other notation: $x+1+ \frac{5}{x-4}$ . Check the steps in the first image.

7. To check if $x+4$ is a factor of $x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24$ , we are going to perform long division. If the result of the long division has no remainder, $x+4$ is a factor of $x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24$ .
Since the result of the long division has no remainder, we can conclude that $x+4$ is a factor of $x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24$ . Check the steps in the second image.

9. To check if $x-3$ is a factor of $x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24$ , we are going to perform long division. If the result of the long division has no remainder, $x-4$ is a factor of $x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24$ .
Since the result of the long division has no remainder, we can conclude that $x-4$ is a factor of $x^{3}+3x^{2}-10x-24$ . Check the steps in the third image.

10. We can conclude that the result of the synthetic division is $-2x^{2}+9x+5$ . Check the steps in the fourth image.

A parabola can be drawn given a focus of (-5, -4)(−5,−4) and a directrix of y=-6y=−6. Write the equation of the parabola in any

lord [1]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \large{y=\dfrac{x^2}{4} + \dfrac{5x}{2} + \dfrac{5}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Focus = (-5,-4)
Directrix = -6

To find:

Parabola Equation

Locus of Parabola (Upward/Downward)

$\displaystyle \large{\sqrt{(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2} = |y-c|}$

Where:

(a,b) = focus
c = directrix

Hence:

$\displaystyle \large{\sqrt{(x+5)^2+(y+4)^2}=|y+6|}$

Cancel square root by squaring both sides as we get:

$\displaystyle \large{(x+5)^2+(y+4)^2=(y+6)^2}$

Solve for y-term:

$\displaystyle \large{(x+5)^2=(y+6)^2-(y+4)^2}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+25=y^2+12y+36-y^2-8y-16}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+25=4y+20}\\\displaystyle \large{x^2+10x+5=4y}\\\displaystyle \large{y=\dfrac{x^2}{4} + \dfrac{5x}{2} + \dfrac{5}{4}}$
