Answer: b 1.20
Step-by-step explanation:
b 1.20
From the problem, the vertex = (0, 0) and the focus = (0, 3)
From the attached graphic, the equation can be expressed as:
(x -h)^2 = 4p (y -k)
where (h, k) are the (x, y) values of the vertex (0, 0)
The "p" value is the difference between the "y" value of the focus and the "y" value of the vertex.
p = 3 -0
p = 3
So, we form the equation
(x -0)^2 = 4 * 3 (y -0)
x^2 = 12y
To put this in proper quadratic equation form, we divide both sides by 12
y = x^2 / 12

9 divided by 13 = 9/13
None of the answer above
Should be: 9 • 1/13
To answer this problem, let p be the price of each scrub. The total bill (t) is the sum of the price of the potting soil (s) and of the 9 scrubs (n). This is depicted in the equation,
$11.50 + 9p = $94.75
The value of p from the equation is 9.25. Thus, each scrub costs $9.25. The answer is letter C.
