Note: this is based on my assumption that we are looking for the hypotenuse.
If we are looking for the adjacent side, then the answer would be 27475 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
We know that when the parabola equation is

the vertex is (h,k) and the focus is

Here, the equation is

so

So,

Then, the focus is

I attached the graph, included the focus so that you can see it :-)
Hope this helps.
Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.
Thank you
Answer:
$74,748.11
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to make use of the amortization formula, we need to find the equivalent monthly interest rate.
When 12% interest is compounded continuously, the annual multiplier is ...
e^0.12 ≈ 1.127497
The equivalent multiplier when the interest is compounded monthly is the 12th root of this,
(e^0.12)^(1/12) = e^0.01 ≈ 1.0100502 = 1 + r
___
The amortization formula tells us that monthly payment amount A will pay off principal P in n months:
P = A(1 -(1 +r)^-n)/r = $900(1 -1.0100502^-180)/0.0100502
P = $74,748.11
The customer can pay off a 12% loan of $74,748.11 at the rate of $900 per month for 15 years.
