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:

Your answer for 15 is D or C. For 16 I’m estimating 125?
Answer:
The result of the division of a number by a fraction is larger than the fraction.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here,we note that value Parker divided by 0.6. =1.02
Written down result of the division = 1.02/0.6 = 0.17
However, since the numerator is 1.02, then the result of dividing it by a fraction should yield a higher number instead of 0.17
Therefore we check as follows
1.02/0.6 = 1.7
The error is apparently due to dividing 1.02 by 6 rather than 0.6
