Answer:
16.67% increase
Step-by-step explanation:
finding the percentage price increase
we need to find the difference in percentage price between the 2 years
12%-10% = 2%
2%/12% x 100% = 100%/6 = 16.67%
20% increase between January 1st 2010 and January 1st 2011
1.Identify the fractions. Using the distributive property, you’ll eventually turn them into integers.
2.For all fractions, find the lowest common multiple (LCM) -- the smallest number that both denominators can fit neatly into. This will allow you to add fractions.
3.Multiply every term in the equation by the LCM.
4.Isolate variables adding or subtracting like terms on both sides of the equals sign.
5.Combine like terms.
6.Solve the equation and simplify, if needed.
Y=1/16x^2
multiplying both sides by 16 we get:
16y=x^2
The general form of a parabola is:
(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)
thus
4p=16
p=4
The parabola opens upwrd:
Focus: (h,k-p)
(0,0-4)
=(0,-4)
Directrix: y=-4
