Look at the table for each type of bird. 5x=15. 6x=18. 10x=30. What would you multiply each of those by to get your answer and find the difference? 5x=15; x= 3. It is the same for each number. So the difference is by 3. I think if I understand this correctly, that would be how you do it. Does this help?

Sample answer: Divide the number of robins by the number of cardinals for each pair of values. The ratios are the same and are a constant of proportionality of 3.

Write an equation of a parabola that opens to the left, has a vertex at the origin, and a focus at (–9, 0.

Georgia [21]

The standard equation of parabola:

(y-k)²=4p(x-h), with:

a) vertex = (h,k)

b) focus = (h+p, k)

c) directrix = (x=h-p)

Since this parabola has a vertex at (0,0) that means h=k=0

Hence the equation becomes: y²=4px, let's calculate p:
focus is given (-9,0) Remember h+p = -9 & since h=0, then p= -9
===> y²= - 36x
