Answer:
14:42
Step-by-step explanation:
As we got 2 to get to 14, that means that we need to times by 7. Then we times the 6 by 7 to get the answer of 42.
I’m not sure if this is correct but this is the way i would solve it.
first, make an equation with the given information
2x-3=30
Then, add three to both sides
2x=33
Finally, divide both sides by 2
x= 16.5
x represents the age of maggie so all you have to do is plug the solution into the equation to check your answer.
2(16.5)-3= 30
Where p is the distance the focus is above the vertex, the equation of a parabola with vertex (h, k) can be written as
... y = 1/(4p)·(x -h)² +k
The vertex is halfway between the focus and directrix. The focus of your parabola is on the y-axis at y=6, and the directrix of your parabola is at y=-6, so the vertex of your parabola is on the y-axis at y=0. That is, the vertex is
... (h, k) = (0, 0).
The distance p from the focus at y=6 to the vertex at y=0 is 6 units, so
... p = 6.
Filling these values into the equation gives
... y = 1/(4·6)·(x -0)² +0
... y = (1/24)x²

1/6 of 72...." of " means multiply
1/6 * 72 = 72/6 = 12....12 books are romance
