The vertex is exactly half way between directrix and focus. In this case the vertex is (8,-7)
(h,k)
P is the distance between the vertex and either the directrix or focus, in this case p = 1.
a = 1/(4p) or 1/(4*1) or 1/4
write the equation in vertex form
y = a(x-h)^2 + k
y = 1/4(x-8)^2 -7

Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
1.75 + 0.25x ≤ 15
where x is equal the number of miles.
The key to solving an inequality is just temporarily making the ≤ symbol a =. Then solve for x like any other algebraic equation. Once you find the value of x, you will have solved the inequality. Make sure to add back the ≤ when you are done.
15 - 1.75 = 13.25
13.25/0.25 = x
x = 53
add back the ≤
x ≤ 53
This means Eddies can travel up to 53 miles with his $15.
