Six dozen cupcakes is 72. So in this case Kailyn made 88 cupcakes, but that was 72 more than Melissa made so Melissa only made 16.
<h2>
Answer: x = -6</h2>
<h3>
Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
To solve for x, we have to find a way to make x the subject of the equation (get x on one side and everything else on the other side)
<h3>
</h3>
since -4 = (2/3)x [mutiply both sides by 3]
⇒ -4 × 3 = 2x [divide both sides by 2]
⇒ (-12/2) = x [simplify by dividing -12 by 2]
∴ x = -6

Let's solve ~
Equation of directrix is : y = 1, so we can say that it's a parabola of form : -

- h = x - coordinate of focus = -4
- k = y - coordinate of focus = 5
- a = half the perpendicular distance between directrix and focus = 1/2(5 - 1) = 1/2(4) = 2
and since the focus is above the directrix, it's a parabola with upward opening.
