r = -3/4p - 18/5 
(or you could put 3.6 or 3 3/5 instead of 18/5)

2 - 3/4p = 5/6r + 5 
-5                     -5
-3 - 3/4p = 5/6r
 /(5/6)       /(5/6) 
-18/5 - 3/4p = r 
-3/4p - 18/5 = r

A parabolic microphone used on the sidelines of a professional football game uses a reflective dish 24 inches wide and 6 inches
Strike441 [17]
The answer is a.
When you are solving problems like this you would use the equation y^2=4ax. The x and Y would be the coordinates. Based on the equation you have given the coordinates would be (6,12) and (6,-12), (24 is split up evenly between the y-axis).  
Then we go on to solve the equation by plugging in the numbers 12^2=4a(6)
144=24a
144/24=24a/24
6=a

Is this a quadratic function 2x+13=13
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

2x + 13 = 0

Reorder the terms:

13 + 2x = 0

Solving

13 + 2x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-13' to each side of the equation.

13 + -13 + 2x = 0 + -13

Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0

0 + 2x = 0 + -13

2x = 0 + -13

Combine like terms: 0 + -13 = -13

2x = -13

Divide each side by '2'.

x = -6.5

Simplifying

x = -6.5
