Each length is 72 times longer so the actual dimensions are 381.6cm by 576 cm
Make them both improper fractions.
77/10 - 19/5
Give them common denominators (multiply the second fraction by 2)
77/10 - 38/10
Subtract
39/10 = 3 9/10
Standard form: Ax+By=C
first put in slope-intercept form:
slope = (0+5)/(6-3) = 5/3
pick point D: 0 = 5/3(6)+b -> b= -10
slope-intercept form: y=(5/3)x-10
multiply both sides by 3:
3y=5x-30
put in standard form:
5x-3y=30
Mary is incorrect. Perimeter is not proportional to area. An example which you can use is garden A is an 8 by 1 rectangle. The perimeter is 18 while the area is 8. Graden B is a 4 by 4 square. The perimeter is 16 (less than garden A) while the area is 16 (two times more than garden B).
Check the picture below.
now, let's keep in mind that, the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix, it's a "p" distance from each other.
since this horizontal parabola is opening to the left-hand-side, "p" is negative, notice in the picture, "p" is 2 units, and since it's negative, p = -2.
its vertex is half-way between those two guys, so that puts the vertex at (-5, 3)
