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.
