The answer is 42 ft 4 in

The perimeter of a rectangle with length l and width w is:
P = 2l + 2w

l = 12 ft 3 in
w = 8 ft 11 in

1 ft = 12 in
l = 12 * 12 in + 3 in = 144 in + 3 in = 147 in
w = 8 * 12 in + 11 in = 96 in + 11 in = 107 in

P = 2 * 147 + 2 * 107 = 294 + 214 = 508 in
P = 508 in = 504 in + 4 in = 42 * 12 in + 4 in = 42 ft 4 in

What is the focus of the parabola? <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20x%5E%7B2%7D%20-x%2B3" id="Te

We know that
the equation of the parabola is of the form
y=ax²+bx+c
in this problem
y=1/4x²−x+3
where
a=1/4
b=-1
c=3
 the coordinates of the focus are
(-b/2a,(1-D)/4a)
where D is the discriminant b²-4ac
D=(-1)²-4*(1/4)*3-----> D=1-3---> D=-2
therefore
x coordinate of the focus
-b/2a----> 1/[2*(-1/4)]----> 2

y coordinate of the focus
(1-D)/4a------> (1+2)/(4/4)---> 3

the coordinates of the focus are (2,3)
