Solve the following equation for q. 5q + 2p + 4 = 3q – 8.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\\$ By collecting the like terms , we have:

$\\$ 5q - 3q = - 8 - 4 - 2p

$\\$ 2q = -12 - 2p

$\\$ divide each term by 2 , we have

$\\$ q = -6 - p

Complete the square and write in standard form. Show all work.What would be the conic section:CircleEllipseHyperbolaParabola

mote1985 [20]

ANSWER

This is an ellipse. The equation is:

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{3^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{4^2}=1$

EXPLANATION

We have to complete the square for each variable. To do so, we have to take the first two terms and compare them with the perfect binomial squared formula,

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2$

For x we have to take 16x² and -32x. Since the coefficient of x is not 1, first, we have to factor out the coefficient 16,

$16x^2-32x=16(x^2-2x)$

Now, the first term of the expanded binomial would be x and the second term -2x. Thus, the binomial is,

$(x-1)^2=x^2-2x+1$

To maintain the equation, we have to subtract 1,

$16(x^2-2x+1-1)=16((x-1)^2-1)=16(x-1)^2-16$

Now, we replace (16x² - 32x) from the given equation by this equivalent expression,

$16(x-1)^2-16+9y^2+72y+16=0$

The next step is to do the same for y. We have the terms 9y² + 72y. Again, since the coefficient of y² is not 1, we factor out the coefficient 9,

$9y^2+72y=9(y^2+8y)$

Following the same reasoning as before, we have that the perfect binomial squared is,

$(y+4)^2=y^2+8y+16$

Remember to subtract the independent term to maintain the equation,

$9(y^2+8y)=9(y^2+8y+16-16)=9((y+4)^2-16)=9(y+4)^2-144$

And now, as we did for x, replace the two terms (9y² + 72y) with this equivalent expression in the equation,

$16(x-1)^2-16+9(y+4)^2-144+16=0$

Add like terms,

$\begin{gathered} 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2+(-16-144+16)=0 \\ 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2-144=0 \end{gathered}$

Add 144 to both sides,

$\begin{gathered} 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2-144+144=0+144 \\ 16(x-1)^2+9(y+4)^2=144 \end{gathered}$

As we can see, this is the equation of an ellipse. Its standard form is,

$\frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+\frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1$

So the next step is to divide both sides by 144 and also write the coefficients as fractions in the denominator,

$\begin{gathered} \frac{16(x-1)^2}{144}+\frac{9(y+4)^2}{144}=\frac{144}{144} \\ \\ \frac{(x-1)^2}{\frac{144}{16}}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{\frac{144}{9}}=1 \end{gathered}$

Finally, we have to write the denominators as perfect squares, so we identify the values of a and b. 144 is 12², 16 is 4² and 9 is 3²,

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{(\frac{12}{4})^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{(\frac{12}{3})^2}=1$

Note that we can simplify a and b,

$\frac{12}{4}=3\text{ and }\frac{12}{3}=4$

Hence, the equation of the ellipse is,

$\frac{(x-1)^2}{3^2}+\frac{(y+4)^2}{4^2}=1$

A rectangles tabletop has a length of 4 3/4 feet and a area of 11 7/8 square feet what is the width of the tabletop

Natalija [7]

Area is length times width. Therefore, width is area divided by length. Convert 11 7/8 to the improper fraction 95/8 and convert 4 3/4 to 19/4. Then, you can fine 95/8 divided by 19/4 by flipping the second fraction and multiplying so that you have 95/8 times 4/19. 4 times 95 is 380 and 8 times 19 is 152. Therefore, the answer is 380/152. This is equivalent to 5/2 or 2.5.

How to find maximum and minimum values of a parabola

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding max/min: There are two ways to find the absolute maximum/minimum value for f(x) = ax2 + bx + c: Put the quadratic in standard form f(x) = a(x − h)2 + k, and the absolute maximum/minimum value is k and it occurs at x = h. If a > 0, then the parabola opens up, and it is a minimum functional value of f.
