The question is a little hard to understand... let me see what i can do. I'll edit what i figure out on here. :) (PS) Did you reword the question? Do you think you could double check and make sure this is what the question looks like?
Started her day with a full bag of apples (?)
She needs 3 for an apple pie
She had 12 total (?)
Or maybe she needs 12 for a pie and now she has 3?

Answer:
3 1/8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
For focus-vertex distance p, the equation of the parabola can be written ...
y = x^2/(4p)
Here, we have p=8. We want to find the value of y when x=10 (the radius of the dish). That is ...
y = (10^2)/(4·8) = 100/32 = 3 1/8
The dish is 3 1/8 inches deep.
-10 = -10 + 7m
Add 10 to each side: 0 = 7m
Divide each side by 7 : 0 = m
Please take a second and just LOOK at the equation you started with.
It says:
-- You have this number '-10' .
-- Your number -10 is going to be exactly the same size
after you add 7 of something to it.
The ONLY way that could happen is if the 'something' is 'nothing' .
' m ' must be nothing.
