Answer:
( 8 , - 8) => x² - 55 = 9
( 4 , - 4) => 2x² - 32 = 0
(5 , - 5) => 4x² - 100 = 0
(11 , - 11) => x² - 140 = -19
( 3, - 3) => 2x² - 18 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
1)

x = ( 4 , - 4)
2)

x = ( 5 , - 5 )
3)

x= ( 8 , - 8)
4)

x = ( 11 , -11)
5)

x = ( 3 , - 3)
The vertex of the parabola is between the shortest line connecting its focus and directrix, so between (0, -4) and y = 4 is the point (0, 0), which is the vertex of the parabola. Also, this parabola faces downward.
The general formula for a parabola that faces downward is y = -4cx^2, where c is the distance from the vertex to either to focus or the parabola. Since c = 4, the equation is y = -16x^2, which is choice A.
Independent Events are 2 events where the occurrence of the first doesn't affect the occurrence of the second and vice versa.
Example: rolling 2 simultaneously dies, the occurrence of the first, has no impact, no effect on the occurrence of the 2nd roll
Answer: $25 spent
Step-by-step explanation: the boy spent $15/total.
15/total=3/8
Divide by common factor: $15/3=$5 (1/8 total money
$5x8=$40
$40-$15=$25 spent
