Answer
The line of symmetry x = -4
Step by step explanation
Here we have to use the formula.
The symmetry of a parabola x = -b/2a
Now compare the given equation y = 3x^2 + 24x -1 with the general form y = ax^2 + bx + c and identify the value of "a" and "b"
Here a = 3 and b = 24. Now plug in these values in to the formula to find the line of symmetry.
x = -24/ 2(3)
x = -24/6
x = -4
Therefore, the line of symmetry x = -4.
Thank you.
Ok so first, write down the equation. We know that x=3 and y=4. You just basically plug in the terms into the variables. So it would be 3(3)+1/4(4)^2. Simplify that equation and you should get your answer :)

Answer: -20</h3>
==========================================================
Work Shown:
Let x be the location of E on the number line.
Since C is the midpoint of E and F, this means we can find C's location by adding E and F together and dividing that sum by 2
midpoint = (endpoint1 + endpoint2)/2
C = (E+F)/2
Plug in E = x, C = -8 and F = 4. Then solve for x
C = (E+F)/2
-8 = (x+4)/2
(x+4)/2 = -8
x+4 = 2(-8) .... multiplying both sides by 2
x+4 = -16
x = -16-4 .... subtract 4 from both sides
x = -20
The location of point E on the number line is -20
-------------
As a check, lets add E and F to get E+F = -20+4 = -16
Then cut this in half to get -16/2 = -8, which is the proper location of point C
This confirms our answer.
Answer:
P = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
5W = 2P + 3R ← substitute W = 4 and R = - 4 into the equation
5(4) = 2P + 3(- 4), that is
20 = 2P - 12 ( add 12 to both sides )
32 = 2P ( divide both sides by 2 )
16 = P
