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)

Fantom [35]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of hour Marco practiced the piano on Monday is given by

\frac{7}{10}

Number of hours Marco practiced the piano on Tuesday is given by

1\frac{1}{4}=\frac{5}{4}\ hours

1) For Adding :

Total number of hours he practiced on both Monday and Tuesday will be

\frac{7}{10}+\frac{5}{4}\\\\=\frac{14+25}{20}\\\\=\frac{39}{20}\ hours

2) For Subtraction,

Number of hour he practiced more on Tuesday than on Monday will be

\frac{5}{4}-\frac{7}{10}\\\\=\frac{25-14}{20}\\\\=\frac{9}{20}\ hours
