Answer:
4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola with its vertex at the origin can be written as ...
y = 1/(4p)x^2
The problem statement tells us that one point on the parabola is (x, y) = (12, 9). We can put these values into the equation and solve for p, the distance from the focus to the vertex.
9 = 1/(4p)(12^2)
9×4/144 = 1/p = 1/4 . . . . . . . . multiply by the inverse of the coefficient of 1/p
Then p = 4, and the bulb is 4 cm from the vertex.

Step-by-step explanation:
If x represents the number of dimes, then 2x will represent twice the number of dimes. This is the number of quarters, since there are twice as many quarters as dimes.
There are 6 more nickels than dimes, so the number of nickels is 6 more than x. It is (x+6).
If we use the monetary values in cents, then the total of all coins is ...
25(2x) +10(x) + 5(x+6) = 485 . . . . . . matches choice D
