A parabola can be drawn given a focus of (-11, -2) and a directrix of x= -3

Check the picture below, so the parabola looks more or less like that.

now, the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix, so that puts it where you see it in the picture, and the horizontal parabola is opening to the left-hand-side, meaning that the distance "P" is negative.

\textit{horizontal parabola vertex form with focus point distance} \\\\ 4p(x- h)=(y- k)^2 \qquad \begin{cases} \stackrel{vertex}{(h,k)}\qquad \stackrel{focus~point}{(h+p,k)}\qquad \stackrel{directrix}{x=h-p}\\\\ p=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\ \qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}\\\\ \stackrel{"p"~is~negative}{op ens~\supset}\qquad \stackrel{"p"~is~positive}{op ens~\subset} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}

\begin{cases} h=-7\\ k=-2\\ p=-4 \end{cases}\implies 4(-4)[x-(-7)]~~ = ~~[y-(-2)]^2 \\\\\\ -16(x+7)=(y+2)^2\implies x+7=-\cfrac{(y+2)^2}{16}\implies x=-\cfrac{1}{16}(y+2)^2-7

Triangle has 180 degrees:
180=2m-3+m+4+3m+5
Combine like terms
180 = 6m+6
Subtract 6 from 180
174=6m
Divide by 6
m=29

A rectangular prism has a volume of 600 cubic inches.
choli [55]

Answer:

The length is 12 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by:

V=LBH

It was given that; the rectangular prism has a volume of 600 cubic inches.

The height of the prism is 5 inches and the width is 10 inches.

We want to find the length of the rectangular prism.

We substitute V=600, H=5,and W=10 into the formula:

600=5×10×L

600=20L

L =  \frac{600}{50}

L = 12in

Nastasia [14]

Answer: x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

7776^{x+5}=216^{3x-5}

6^{5(x+5)}=6^{3(3x-5)}

5(x+5)=3(3x-5)

5x+25=9x-15

25=4x-15

4x=40

x=10
