Step-by-step explanation:
If the parabola has the form
(vertex form)
then its vertex is located at the point (h, k). Therefore, the vertex of the parabola
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
where 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
By definition, the length of the latus rectum is four times the focal length so therefore, its value is
3 blocks east and 2 blocks north should be the correct answer :)
You have to keep order of operations in mind.
1. Take care of the parentheses; distribute.
-3+6x-3=-20-8x
Simplified: 6x-6=-20-8x
2. Isolate the x variable.
Add 8x to both sides and add 6 to both sides.
14x=-14
3. Solve for x.
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x=-1
Answer:
0.54

1.2/100*45
Hello,
If 12 balls were pitched to each of the 9 players at practice, then
12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 balls were pitched total.
This is also equal to (12)(9) = 108 balls.
108 balls were pitched during practice.
Hope this helps!
