$653.84 would be a week's salary if no taxes are figured into the equation
X + 5y = 1 . . . . (1)
8x - 2y = 3 . . . .(2)
Solution 1.
From (1), x = 1 - 5y
substituting for x in (2), we have:
8(1 - 5y) - 2y = 3
8 - 40y - 2y = 3
8 - 42y = 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
x = 1 - 5(5/42) = 1 - 25/42 = 17/42.
Solution 2.
Multiply (1) by 8, to get:
8x + 40y = 8 . . . . . (3)
(3) - (2) = 40y - (-2y) = 8 - 3
42y = 5
y = 5/42
substitute for y into (3), to get:
8x + 40(5/42) = 8
8x + 100/21 = 8
8x = 8 - 100/21 = 68/21
x = (68/21)/8 = 17/42
Check the picture below.
now, we know the directrix is at y = 1, and the focus point is at 1,3, well, notice the picture, the distance between those fellows is just 2 units.
the vertex is half-way between those fellows, therefore, the vertex will be at 1,2.
the distance "p", from the vertex to either the directrix or focus, is really just 1 unit. Since the focus point is above the directrix, is a vertical parabola, and it opens upwards, like in the picture, and since it opens up, the "p" value is positive, or +1.
Hi there!

Find the area of the parallelogram using the formula:
A = b × h
Thus:
A = 7 × 5 = 35 units²
Answer:
He made seven A's.
