Answer:
- 3/20, with the assumptions below.
Explanation:
The question seems incomplete.
In order to show you the procedure, I make some assumptions.
Assuming that Ricky wants to split the full content of the 3/4 of a bag between his 5 friends, to find what fraction of the bag will each friend receive you must divide 3/4 by 5.
The operation is:
Convert the whole number 5 into fraction using 1 as denominator:
Transform the division into multiplication changing the divisor into its reciprocal:
Multiply numerator with numerator and denominator with denominator:
Answer:
x = -8
y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 7y = 9
2x - 3y = -37
1.) First, multiply each side to match either y-values or x-values. (In this example, we'll use match x-values)
10x + 14y = 18 (multiplied by 2)
10x - 15y = -185 (multiplied by 5)
2.) Then, subtract the entirety of one equation to isolate the y-value.
10x + 14y = 18
-10x + 15y = 185
3.) Add and subtract values and divide to find y.
29y = 203
y = 7
4.) Plug-in y to solve for x into one equation, or repeat steps 1-3.
15x + 21y = 27
14x - 21y = -259
29x = -232
x = -8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The directrix y=-6 is parallel to the x axes, so parabola has equation of the form
where is the vertex of parabola and p is parabola's parameter.
By the definition, is the distance from the vertex to the directrix, so
Hence, the equation of parabola is
See attached diagram for the graph of parabola and its directrix.
In vertex form this equation is
