Remember that for a function of the form

, a parabola, the focus will be:

.
We know that the vertex of the parabola is (0,0), and the sun is the focus of the parabola; we also know that the focus is in the positive y-axis and when the comet is as its vertex, the distance between them is 60'000.000 km; therefore the focus of our parabola is (0, 60'000.000).
Now that we know the focus, we can find

using the focus of the parabola:




Now, the only thing left is replacing the value of

in our equation

:

We can conclude that the equation that represents the path of the comet is
By finding the maximum common factor between the number of spoons, we conclude that he must put 6 teaspoons per bag.
There will be 8 bags in total.
<h3>How many teaspoons of spice should the clerk put in each bag?</h3>
We know that the store clerk has 18 teaspoons of cinnamon and 30 spoons of nutmeg.
Now, we want to put these in bags, such that each bag contains the same number of teaspoons.
Then the number of teaspoons per bag must be a common factor of 30 and 18. (the minimum number of bags is what we get when we select the maximum common factor).
Decomposing these two numbers gives:
30 = 2*3*5
18 = 2*3*3
Then the maximum common factor is 2*3 = 6
This means that we need to put 6 teaspoons per bag.
And the total number of teaspoons is 30 + 18 = 48, dividing that by 6 we get:
48/6 = 8
There will be 8 bags.
