So, notice, the focus point is at -7, 5, and the directrix is at y = -11.

keep in mind that the vertex is half-way between those two fellows, and the distance from the vertex to either one of them is "p" units, check the picture below.

with that focus point and that directrix, the half-way over the axis of symmetry will be -7, -3, that's where the vertex is at, and notice the distance "p", is 8 units.

since the parabola is opening upwards, "p" is positive 8.

\bf \textit{parabola vertex form with focus point distance}\\\\
\begin{array}{llll}
4p(x- h)=(y- k)^2
\\\\
\boxed{4p(y- k)=(x- h)^2}
\end{array}
\qquad 
\begin{array}{llll}
vertex\ ( h, k)\\\\
 p=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\
\qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
h=-7\\
k=-3\\
p=8
\end{cases}\implies 4(8)[y-(-3)]=[x-(-7)]^2
\\\\\\
32(y+3)=(x+7)^2\implies y+3=\cfrac{1}{32}(x+7)^2
\\\\\\
y=\cfrac{1}{32}(x+7)^2-3

Answer:

688.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Top and Bottom

Area = 3/4 * pi * r^2

r = 6

Area = 3/4 * 3.14 * 6^2

Area =                                                               84.78

Don't round yet.

Vertical surface

Vertical surface = 3/4 * pi * d * h

d = 12 inches (the diameter)

Vertical surface = 3/4 * 3.14 * 12 * 15

Vertical surface =                                          423.9

Two inner faces

They are both rectangles

Area = 2 * L * W

L = 15

w=6

Area = 2 * 15 * 6                           <u>                  180</u>

Total                                                               688.68

Total = 688.7

Part A

So the coefficient would be the number that is with a variable. The coefficient of 7.50h is 7.50. The variable is h, variables can be a letter or symbol that stands for something in a equation. For this question, h stands for the number of hours Corinne works. The constant is the number that is alone in the equation. That doesn't have a variable with it. In this equation the constant would be the number 40.


Part B

To solve this I will plug in 25 into "h" in and 300 for "s" in the equation 7.50h + 0.20s + 40 and then solve.


1. 25 * 7.50 = $187.5.

2. 0.20 * 300 = $60

3. Add it all together: $187.50 + $60 = $247.50 + $40 = $287.50


Part C

If Corrine gets a raise and earns $9 an hour the coefficient would change. It would be 9h instead of 7.50h.
