Answer:
3/8 gallons of water is in it.
Step-by-step explanation:
7/8-1/2=7/8-4/8=3/8
12, 3/4=12.75. 2, 1/2=2.5. All you have to do is multiple base * height to get your answer. so 12.75*2.=31.875.
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
6/100=3/y
Let y be the total number of items on the test
[cross multiply]
6×y =3×100
6y = 300
divide both sides by 6
y = 50
The value of a would be 3.5, as a=1 when b=10 means that a is worth 1/10 of b's value.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If you plot this point and the directrix on a coordinate plane, you can see that the directrix is 1/4 of a unit below the vertex. Since, by nature, a parabola opens in the direction opposite the directrix and "hugs" the focus, this is a positive x-squared parabola (meaning it opens upwards). The formula for this type of a parabola is, in vertex form,

where p is distance (in units) between the vertex and the directrix and h and k are the coordinates of the vertex. For us, p = .25, h = 7, and k = -6. Filling in our formula:

Simplify the left side to
which simplifies, in its entirety, to
