I need to find and write the equation for the problem.

0.8p - 50 < = 150
0.8p < = 150 + 50
0.8p < = 200
p < = 200/0.8
p < = 250

the reason I set it up this way is because when it is 20% off, u r actually paying 80% of the original price (p)....80% of the original price is written as 0.8p...then u subtract ur 50 dollar discount coupon...- 50.....and if all she can spend is 150....it would be less then or equal to 150. So the most she can spend on the phone is 250

(p-20/100p)-50 =80/100p-50 =4/5p-50

Geometry!!Find the area of the rhombus!!

mars1129 [50]

The area of a rhombus is half of the product of the lengths of the diagonals.

area = (7.5 yd + 7.5 yd)(13 yd + 13 yd)/2

area = (15 yd)(26 yd)/2

area = 390 yd^2/2

area = 195 yd^2

Answer: 195

Using the given information, give the vertex form equation for each parabola.

ollegr [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plot this point and the directrix on a coordinate plane, you can see that the directrix is 1/4 of a unit below the vertex. Since, by nature, a parabola opens in the direction opposite the directrix and "hugs" the focus, this is a positive x-squared parabola (meaning it opens upwards). The formula for this type of a parabola is, in vertex form,

$4p(y-k)=(x-h)^2$

where p is distance (in units) between the vertex and the directrix and h and k are the coordinates of the vertex. For us, p = .25, h = 7, and k = -6. Filling in our formula:

$4(.25)(y+6)=(x-7)^2$
