Answer:

11.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a parabola is:

y − k = 1/(4p) (x − h)²

where (h, k) is the vertex and p is the distance from the focus to the vertex.

1/(4p) = 1/45

4p = 45

p = 11.25

The distance from the vertex to the focus is 11.25 inches.

Julli [10]

Jenny is incorrect in her calculation.

For every time that Jenny's brother washed dishes, Jenny washed dishes 4 times. This tells that the the times they washed dishes occur in the ratio 4 :1. If Jenny's brother washed dishes 8 times, Jenny has to have washed dishes 4\times 8=32 times. The way Jenny's is doing the calculation implies that his brother washed dishes 3*\times 8 =24 times. He calculation yields a wrong result.
