Jesper can run 6 miles in 45 minutes. He is thinking about running in two different races, a 9-mile race and a 15-mile race. At

his current rate, how many more minutes will it take Jesper to complete the 15-mile race than the 9-mile race?

Find minutes per mile by dividing time by distance:

45 minutes / 6 miles = 7.5 minutes per mile

Now multiply his speed by each distance:

7.5 x 9 = 67.5 minutes

7.5 x 15 = 112.5 minutes

Now subtract the two:

112.5 - 67.5 = 45 minutes more

What is the equation of the directrix of a parabola defined by the equation y = x2 − 2x − 3?

<span><span>Graph <span>x2<span> = 4</span>y</span><span> and state the vertex, focus, axis of symmetry, and directrix.</span></span><span>This is the same graphing that I've done in the past: </span><span>y = (1/4)x2</span><span>. So I'll do the graph as usual:</span></span><span> </span><span>The vertex is obviously at the origin, but I need to "show" this "algebraically" by rearranging the given equation into the conics form:<span>x2 = 4y</span> Copyright © Elizabeth Stapel 2010-2011 All Rights Reserved<span>
(x – 0)2 = 4(y – 0)</span><span>This rearrangement "shows" that the vertex is at </span><span>(h, k) = (0, 0)</span><span>. The axis of symmetry is the vertical line right through the vertex: </span><span>x = 0</span>. (I can always check my graph, if I'm not sure about this.) The focus is "p" units from the vertex. Since the focus is "inside" the parabola and since this is a "right side up" graph, the focus has to be above the vertex.<span>From the conics form of the equation, shown above, I look at what's multiplied on the unsquaredpart and see that </span><span>4p = 4</span><span>, so </span><span>p = 1</span><span>.

(y + 5)2 = –1(x – 0)</span><span>This tells me that </span><span>4p = –1</span><span>, so </span><span>p = –1/4</span><span>.

I can see from the equation above that the vertex is at </span><span>(h, k) = (0, –5)</span><span>, so then the focus must be at </span>(–1/4, –5)<span>.

(y + 3)2 = –12x + 9 + 15 = –12x + 24</span> <span>
(y + 3)2 = –12(x – 2)</span> <span>

Find the value of x. *<br> I think I’m a little off
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

x = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5 is complementary to y° so their sum is 180°

The angle with measure 127° is also complementary with y°

127 + y = 180

y = 53°

53 + 3x - 5 = 180

3x + 48 = 180

3x = 132

x = 44
