Sonia saves a lot of water. To figure this out, you plug the number 8 into the equation, replacing it with the variable x. y = 3(8). Therefore, y=24. To find out how much water she saves, you have to also figure out how much water she was using for 8 minutes with the other shower head, the one that wastes the water. Since it dispenses 12 gallons per minute, you multiply that by 8 minutes and get 96. Subtract 24 from 96 and get 72. Which I think is your answer. Then again, I'm in high school so I most likely am wrong.

Which of the following equations is of the parabola whose vertex is at (2, 3), axis of symmetry parallel to the y-axis and p = 4

lora16 [44]

Answer:

option A.) y-3 = 1/16 (x-2)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the axis of symmetry is parallel to the y-axis, then we have a vertical parabola

The equation of a vertical parabola is equal to

$4p(y-k)=(x-h)^{2}$
