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.
Answer:
w ≤ 593
Step-by-step explanation:
Missing option;
w ≥ 593
w > 593
w ≤ 593
593 < w
Explanation:
w ≥ 593 No
Number of wrapping paper sold never be more than 593.
w > 593 no
Number of wrapping paper sold never be more than 593.
w ≤ 593 yes
Number of wrapping paper sold will be equal or less than 593.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
We are going to use the identity
because this identities right hand side matches your expression where
and
.
So we have that
is equal to
.
Remember that moving on the x axis is 1 and on the y axis 2
