You multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the number that you need to multiply the denominator by to equal 100. Then your numerator is the percent.
This is a vertical parabola which opens upwards
we have the general formula
(x - h)^2 = 4p(y - k) where p is the y coordinate of the focus
y/14 = x^2 - x /14 - 1/14
add 1/14 to both sides
y/14 + 1 /14 = x^2 - x /14
now complete the square
y/14 + 1/14 = x^2 - x/14 + 1/28^2
y/14 + 1/14 = (x - 1/28)^2
(x - 1/28)^2 = 1/14( y + 1)
comparing this with the general form:-
4p = 1/14
p = 1/56
so the focus is at (h,p) = (1/28, 1/56)

Step-by-step explanation:
A. 60mph
B. 12 customers per day
C. 2.5 meters per sec
D. 1.59$ per pound
We divide to find each unit rate.
(e.g 420/7=60)
(360/30=12)(40/16=2.5)(7.95/5=1.59)
One way in which to do this problem would involve subtracting 5 from 7 (result: 2) and then subtracting 3/5 from 8/9.
To subtract 3/5 from 8/9, you'd need to find the lowest common denominator (LCD) of 3/5 and 8/9, convert both fractions to have this LCD, and then subtract.
The LCD is (5)(9)=45. Then 8/9 and 3/5 become 40/45 and 27/45.
Subtracting 27/45 from 40/45 results in the fraction 13/45.
Then the full solution is 2 13/45.
You could also do this problem by converting 7 8/9 and 5 3/5 into improper fractions:
71/9 - 28/5. Again, the LCD is 45. Can you rewrite both fractions with 45 as the common denominator and then perform the subtraction?
