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)

Hello! $800 was the past amount for rent and now it's $900. 900 - 800 is 100. that's a $100 difference. In order to find the percent increase in the rent, we can write and sovle a proportion. It would be set up as change/original = x/100, where change is difference between two numbers and original is the previous price. It would be set up like this:
100/800 = x/100
Let's crossmultiply the values. 100 * 100 is 10,000. 800 * x is 800x. That makes 10,000 = 800x. Now, divide each side by 800 to isolate the x. 800x/800 cancels out. 10,000/800 is 12.5 or 12.5%. Let's check this by multiplying by 112.5%. 800 * 112.5% (1.125) is 900. That's what we're looking for! There. x = 12.5%. The percent increase is 12.5%.
We have

7/10 yard
<span>The distance poles B and D= (1-1/5)=4/5 yard
</span>The distance poles B and E= BD+DE=4/5+7/10=(8+7)/10=15/10=3/2 yard
the answer is 3/2 yard (distance poles B and E)
Answer:
4,250,000 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
Since volume follows the formula of length×width×height, all we have to do is substitute those numbers.
So 200×250×85 is 4,250,000 ft.
Since this is volume, you have to make the answer cubed.
So the final answer is 4,250,000 ft³
