Option B:
The expression equivalent to |a| ≤ 5 is a ≥ -5 and a ≤ 5.
Solution:
Given expression: 
To find the equivalent expression for the given expression.
Apply absolute value rule:
<em>If |x| ≤ m then -m ≤ x ≤ m.</em>
⇒ -5 ≤ a ≤ 5
⇒ -5 ≤ a and a ≤ 5
Switch the sides, we get
⇒ a ≥ -5 and a ≤ 5
The expression equivalent to |a| ≤ 5 is a ≥ -5 and a ≤ 5.
Option B is the correct answer.
The value of k is (A) 20/3.

What is a parabola?</h3>
- A parabola is a planar curve that is mirror-symmetrical and roughly U-shaped in mathematics.
- It fits various seemingly disparate mathematical descriptions, all of which can be shown to define the same curves.
- A point and a line are two ways to describe a parabola.
To find the value of k:
Where (a, b) is the vertex and c is the constant.
- (a, b) = (-4, k)
- y - k = c (x - (- 4))²
- y - k = c (x + 4)²
So,
- x = 0, y = 12
- 12 - k = 16c
- k = 12 - 16c ...... (1)
Then,
- (-3, 7) = (x, y)
- 7 - k = c (1)²
- k = 7 - c ...... (2)
Now,
- 12 - 16c = 7 - c
- 12 - 7 = 16c - c
- 5 = 15c
- c = 5/15 = 1/3
So, the value of k:
- k = 12 - 16 (1/3) = 12 - 16/3 = 36-16/3 = 20/3
Therefore, the value of k is (A) 20/3.

The complete question is given below:
The coordinates of the vertex of a parabola in the XY plane are (-4,k). If the y-intercept of the parabola is 12 and the parabola passes through the point (-3,7), then what is the value of k?
(A) 20/3
(B) 16/5
(C) 14/3
(D) 12/5
Answer:
<u>4.77 in.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Height = volume / πr²
= 60 / 3.14 x 4
= 15/3.14
= <u>4.77 in.</u>
X intercept is 2
y intercept is 4
slope is 4/2
