x = 2.857

\large\mathfrak{{\pmb{\underline{\red{Step-by-step\:explanation}}{\orange{:}}}}}

6x - 9 - 2(1 - x) = x + 9 \\ ⇢ 6x - 9 - 2 + 2x = x + 9 \\ ⇢ 8x - x = 9 + 11 \\ ⇢ 7x = 20 \\ ⇢  x =  \frac{20}{7}  \\ ⇢ x = 2.857

{ \bf{ \underbrace{To\:verify:}}}

6 \times 2.857 - 9 - 2(1 - 2.857) = 2.857 + 9 \\ ➪ \: 17.142 - 9 - 2 \times(  - 1.857) = 11.857 \\➪ \: 8.142 + 3.714 = 11.857 \\➪ \: 11.856 = 11.857 \\  ➪ \: 11.86 = 11.86 \\ ➪ L.H.S.=R. H. S

Hence verified.

What is the equation of the quadratic graph with a focus of (3, 1) and a directrix of y = 5?
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The equation of the quadratic graph is f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3 (second option)

Step-by-step explanation:

Focus: F=(3,1)=(xf, yf)→xf=3, yf=1

Directrix: y=5 (horizontal line), then the axis of the parabola is vertical, and the equation has the form:

f(x)=[1 / (4p)] (x-h)^2+k

where Vertex: V=(h,k)

The directix y=5 must intercept the axis of the parabola at the point (3,5), and the vertex is the midpoint between this point and the focus:

Vertex is the midpoint between (3,5) and (3,1):

h=(3+3)/2→h=6/2→h=3

k=(5+1)/2→k=6/2→k=3

Vertex: V=(h,k)→V=(3,3)

p=yf-k→p=1-3→p=-2

Replacing the values in the equation:

f(x)= [ 1 / (4(-2)) ] (x-3)^2 + 3

f(x)=[ 1 / (-8) ] (x-3)^2 + 3

f(x)= - (1/8) (x-3)^2 + 3

Drag expressions to complete each equation.
Maru [420]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of exponents

a^{b} × a^{c} = a^{b+c}

\frac{a^{b} }{a^{c} } = a^{b-c}

a^{c} × b^{c} = (ab)^{c}

because

31,006,000 x 1.2% = 6,201,200

so,
