1200 ... i think this you mean
I'm not sure I understand the question. Is this worded correctly?
Last month, she had 100.....this month, 30 new members joined and 10 cancelled....thats basically the same as saying 20 new members joined...so there are now 120 members...at 10 per subscription = 120(10) = $ 1200 <=
Assume the parabola is placed on a graph where the x-axis is the top of the dish.
The vertex is then at (0,-30) The x-intercepts or zeros are at (-30,0) and (30,0)
The equation of such parabola would be:

Plug in vertex to find value of 'a'

Now find the focus given that


Answer: the microphone should be placed 7.5 inches from vertex.
29.) This is simply interpreting the linear function.
The function:
96+2.1x
a.) The 96 is what you start with from the beginning. So, we know Rachel weighed 96 ounces when she was born.
b.) Again, interpretation. The 2.1 is the slope, or the change in the line. So we know that Rachel gains 2.1 ounces each day.
30.) For this one, you just have to plug 9 into the equation for x.
