Convert the fractions to decimals OR
Convert the decimals to fractions
Let us therefore convert the decimals to fractions.
Answer:
< No
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the parabola is placed on a graph where the x-axis is the top of the dish.
The vertex is then at (0,-30) The x-intercepts or zeros are at (-30,0) and (30,0)
The equation of such parabola would be:

Plug in vertex to find value of 'a'

Now find the focus given that


Answer: the microphone should be placed 7.5 inches from vertex.
