Answer:

This ordered pair is NOT a solution of the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, it is important to note that ordered pairs consist of (x, y) so in this case

x = 15 and y = -3. And that any variable directly next to a number calls for multiplication. So, plugging in the variables the equation would look like

"-3 = 5 x 15"

To see if 5 x 15 = -3 we will multiply them. 5 x 15 actually equals 75 not -3. So we know this ordered pair is NOT the solution for the problem.

The focus of a parabola is (0, -3) and the directrix is y = 3. What is the equation of the parabola?

mart [117]

Focus has coordinates (0, a)
a = -3
Thus, 4a = 4(-3) = -12

Because a is negative, we know it will be a concave down or concave left parabola. Hence, A and D can be eliminated. And we know it has to be B because the directrix is the horizontal line y = 3. Hence, the equation of the parabola becomes:

$x^{2} = -12y$ or $y = -\frac{1}{12}x^{2}$

7/10 of 120 and show work pls

slavikrds [6]

When it says 7/10, it actually means 70%, so you have to find 70% of 120.
<span>
70 % of 120
= 70% x 120
= (70/100) x 120
= (8400/100)
= 84

Answer: 84</span>
