Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, here we have a reduction in the number of students by 20% from 2010 to 2011.

In 2011, we had k students, so we want to calculate the number of students we had in 2010.

Let the number of students present in 2010 be x

So mathematically;

x - 20% of x = k

x - 0.2(x) = k

0.8x = k

x = k/0.8

x = k * 1/0.8

x = k * 1.25

x = 1.25k

Starting balance : 986.24

deductions :
car payment : 203.34
gas bill : 96.67
debit card : 67.12
ATM : 30
total deductions : 203.34 + 96.67 + 67.12 + 30 = 397.13

deposits :
check : 1289.60
cash : 45
total deposits : 1289.60 + 45 = 1334.60

Balance to date : 986.24 + 1334.6 - 397.13 = 1923.71 <==

Scientists studying dolphin echolocation simulate the projection of a bottlenose dolphin's clicking sounds using computer
lina2011 [118]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola with focus at (h, k) and the directrix y = p is given by the following formula:

(y - k)^2 = 4 * f * (x - h)

In this case, the focus is at the origin (0, 0) and the directrix is the line y = -1.3, so the equation representing the cross section of the reflector is:

y^2 = 4 * f * x

  = 4 * (-1.3) * x

  = -5.2x

The depth of the reflector is the distance from the vertex to the directrix. In this case, the vertex is at the origin, so the depth is simply the distance from the origin to the line y = -1.3. Since the directrix is a horizontal line, this distance is simply the absolute value of the y-coordinate of the line, which is 1.3 inches. Therefore, the depth of the reflector is approximately 1.3 inches.
