Answer:

w≅8.46ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

focus=8

vertex=(0,0)

width=?

depth (y)=3ft

parabola equation: (x-h)^{2}=4p(y-k); then for V=(0,0), x^{2} =4py, be focus(f)=8in;  x^{2} =4*8*y=32y → y=\frac{x^{2} }{32}

we have that y=3ft then 3=\frac{x^{2} }{32}; but 1in≅0.083ft so x^{2} =3*32*0.083=7.968 → x=±2.82, finally w=3*2.82≅8.46ft
