Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

let's say the number is equal to x; seven times the number is 7x;

then it says minus the number so 7x-x is equal to -48

7x-x=-48; combine the x's

6x = -48; now divide by 6

x = -8

2. A recipe says that 6 spring rolls will serve 3 people. Complete the table as you answer the questions. Be prepared to explain
LuckyWell [14K]

Answers:

a. 0.5 people

b. 10 spring rolls will serve 5 people, 16 spring rolls will serve  8 people, 25 spring rolls will serve 12.5 people

c. n/2 or 1/2 of n

Step-by-step explanation:

if 6=3p, p representing each person, then we find that 2 spring rolls serve 1 person, so 1 spring roll serves 0.5 people!

if 1=0.5p, then p is 1/2 of the amount of spring rolls.

Divide each of the amount of spring rolls by 2.

10=5p

16=8p

25=12.5p

n=n/2

The variable p is important, as to show that it's the amount of people.

Hope this helps!

Can you please help me out with a question
Finger [1]

The standard equation of a circle is expressed as

(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

where

h is the x coordinate of the center of the circle

k is the y coordinate of the center of the circle

r is the radius of the circle(the distance from the center of the circle to the circumference

From the graph,

h = - 1

y = 4

r = 5

By substituting these values into the equation, we have

(x - - 1)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 5^2

(x + 1)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 25

Thus, the equation of the circle is

(x + 1)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 25

Write an equation for a parabola with a focus of (1,-2) and a directrix of y=6
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{16}(x - 1)² + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Any point (x, y) on the parabola is equidistant from the focus and the directrix.

Using the distance formula

\sqrt{(x-1)^2+(y+2)^2^} = | y - 6 |

Square both sides

(x - 1)² + (y + 2)² = (y - 6)² ( expand the factors in y )

(x - 1)² + y² + 4y + 4 = y² - 12y + 36 ( subtract y² - 12y from both sides )

(x - 1)² + 16y + 4 = 36 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

(x - 1)² + 16y = 32 ← subtract (x - 1)² from both sides )

16y = - (x - 1)² + 32 ( divide all terms by 16 )

y = - \frac{1}{16} (x - 1)² + 2
