What is the equation of a quadratic graph with a focus of (-4,17/8) and a detric of y=15/8 answer

keeping in mind that the vertex is between the focus point and the directrix, in this cases we have the focus point above the directrix, meaning is a vertical parabola opening upwards, Check the picture below, which means the "x" is the squared variable.

now, the vertical distance from the focus point to the directrix is \bf \cfrac{17}{8}-\cfrac{15}{8}\implies \cfrac{2}{8} , which means the distance "p" is half that or 1/8, and is positive since it's opening upwards.

since the vertex is 1/8 above the directrix, that puts the vertex at \bf \cfrac{15}{8}+\stackrel{p}{\cfrac{1}{8}}\implies \cfrac{16}{8}\implies 2 , meaning the y-coordinate for the vertex is 2.

\bf \textit{vertical parabola vertex form with focus point distance} \\\\ 4p(y- k)=(x- h)^2 \qquad \begin{cases} \stackrel{vertex}{(h,k)}\qquad \stackrel{focus~point}{(h,k+p)}\qquad \stackrel{directrix}{y=k-p}\\\\ p=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\ \qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}\\\\ \stackrel{"p"~is~negative}{op ens~\cap}\qquad \stackrel{"p"~is~positive}{op ens~\cup} \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf \begin{cases} h=-4\\ k=2\\ p=\frac{1}{8} \end{cases}\implies 4\left(\frac{1}{8} \right)(y-2)=[x-(-4)]^2\implies \cfrac{1}{2}(y-2)=(x+4)^2 \\\\\\ y-2=2(x+4)^2\implies \blacktriangleright y = 2(x+4)^2+2 \blacktriangleleft

An ice cube is made of 5 fluid ounces of water. About how many milliliters of water does it take to make an ice cube
Sergio [31]

<u>ANSWER: </u>

147.868 mL of water is required to make an ice cube.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given that, an ice cube is made up of 5 fluid ounces of water.

We need to find how many milli liters of water does it require to make an ice cube.

For, that we have to convert 5 fluid ounces in to units of milli liters.

We know that, 1 US fluid ounce equals to 29.5735 milli liters. i.e. 1 US fluid ounce = 29.5735 mL

Now,  

An ice cube is made by 5 fluid ounces = 5 x 1 fluid ounce

= 5 x 29.5735 mL  = 147.868 mL

Hence, 147.868 mL of water is required to make an ice cube.
