From the given data:<span> vertex at the origin and a focus at (0, 9), the parabola should be facing upwards. In this case, the length of the latus rectum is 9 units which is a. Hence the equation becomes y = 4 (9) x^2. The equation is equal to y = 36 x^2. The standard form is 36 x^2 - y = 0.</span>
Between 7/8 and 14/15 the bigger value is the 7/8. When comparing to fractions you need look on the denominator of the fractions the smaller the denominator the larger the fraction. Thank you for posting your question here. Hope it helps.
First write what are given from the question
We write "<span>Craig scored 12 points in a game" as
</span>⇒ c = 12 <em>(first equation)</em>
We write "<span>Marla scored twice as many points as Craig but 5 fewer than Nelson scored" as
</span>⇒ m = 2c <em>(second equation)</em>
⇒ m = n - 5 <em>(third equation)</em>
<span>
Second, find the expression for n based on what we write above
</span>From the second and third equation
⇒ m = m
⇒ n - 5 = 2c
Subtitute from the first equation
⇒ n - 5 = 2c
⇒ n - 5 = 2(12)
⇒ n - 5 = 24
This is the expression to find how many nelson scored
n - 5 = 24

6 - 3 = 3
-2 - (-9) = 7
(3 , 7)
I think
Step-by-step explanation:
12.5 since it decreases 10% and the old bag had 14 cups and 10% is 1.4
