To get the answer we can use proportion. We know that 350 its 100% and 378 its 100% + taxes.
350% ------------ 100
378% ------------ x
cross multiply now
350*x=378*100
350x=37800      /:350
x=108 
Now we see that taxes its 8%, because final price its 100% + taxes = 108%

Derive the equation of the parabola with a focus of (-5,-5) and a directrix of y=7.
adoni [48]

Answer:

y=-\frac{1}{24}(x+5)^2+1

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parabola has its focus at (-5,-5) and the directrix is at: y=7.

The equation of such parabola is given by the formula:

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

The vertex of the parabola is the midpoint of (-5,-5) and (-5,7).

(\frac{-5+-5}{2},\frac{-5+7}{2} )=(-5,1)

The value of p is the distance from the (-5,-5) to (-5,1).

p=|1--5|=6

We substitute the values of the vertex and p into the equation to get;

(x--5)^2=-4(6)(y-1)

(x+5)^2=-24(y-1)

Or

y=-\frac{1}{24}(x+5)^2+1

Ali was paid $75 for mowing a neighbor's yard. This is a fourth of the money he earned all summer. Write and solve an equation t
likoan [24]

Answer:

He earned $300 all summer

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to write an equation and also determine the amount Ali earned all summer if he collected $75 mowing fee from a neighbor and this constitutes 1/4 of the few he had collected all summer.

Now, let the total amount of money he had all summer be $y

He collected a fourth equivalent to $75, this means 1/4 * y = 75 or y/4 = $75

Now we calculate y as y = $75 * 4 = $300
