Answer:

x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

First, subtract 4 from both sides.

4 - 4 = 0, so they cancel each other out.

36 - 4 = 32.

Equation:

2x + 4 ( - 4) = 36 ( - 4)

2x = 32

Next, divide both sides by 2.

2x ÷ 2 = x

32 ÷ 2 = 16

Equation:

2x ( ÷ 2) = 32 ( ÷ 2)

x = 16

So, x = 16

Make sure to check your answer.

2x + 4 = 36

2(16) + 4 = 36

32 + 4 = 36

36 = 36

So the answer is right.

Answer:

2x + 4 = 36
2x = 36-4
2x = 32
x = 32/2
x = 16

What is the focus of the parabola? y=−14x2−2x−2

nataly862011 [7]

First, we need to transform the equation into its standard form (x - h)²=4p(y - k).
Using completing the square method:

y = -14x² - 2x - 2
y = -14(x² + 2x/14) - 2
y = -14(x² + 2x/14 + (2/28)²) -2 + (2/28)²
y = -14(x + 1/14)² - 391/196
-1/14(y + 391/196) = (x + 1/14)²

This is a vertical parabola and its focus (h, k + p) is (-1/14, -391/196 + 1/56) = (-1/14, -775/392).

Or (-0.071,-1.977).
