Answer:
<h2>x = 7</h2>Step-by-step explanation:
To find the value of the value of x when
y = 14 we must first find the relationship between them
The statement
The value of y varies directly with x is written as
where k is the constant of proportionality
when x = 218
y = 436
So we have
436 = 218k
Divide both sides by 218
k = 2
So the formula for the variation is
<h2>y = 2x</h2>when y = 14
We have
14 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2
<h3>x = 7</h3>Hope this helps you.

Answer:
C. 1/(4a)
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you're comparing the vertex form ...
y = a(x -h)^2 +k
to the form used to write the equation in terms of the focal distance p.
y = 1/(4p)(x -h)^2 +k
That comparison tells you ...
a = 1/(4p)
p = 1/(4a) . . . . . . multiply by p/a; matches choice C

<em>Additional comment</em>
When using plain text to write a rational expression, parentheses are needed around any denominator that has is more than a single constant or variable. The order of operations requires 1/4a to be interpreted as (1/4)a. The value of p is 1/(4a).
When rational expressions are typeset, the fraction bar serves as a grouping symbol identifying the entire denominator:
