Answer: 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Ticket price of jacket = $199

Final price after addition of sales tax = $208.95

Percentage sales tax on the jacket =?

Final price after addition of sales tax = price of jacket + amount of sales tax paid

208.95 = 199 + amount of sales tax paid

amount of sales tax paid = 208.95 - 199

amount of sales tax paid = $9.95

Let Percentage of sales tax = x

(x / 100) * 199 = 9.95

199x / 100 = 9.95

199x = 995

x = 5

Hence percent sales tax paid = 5%

The correct standard form of the equation of the parabola is:

(x+3)^{2}= 4(y - 3).

<h3 /><h3>What is a parabola?</h3>

An equation of a curve that has a point on it that is equally spaced from a fixed point and a fixed line is referred to as a parabola. The parabola's fixed line and fixed point are together referred to as the directrix and focus, respectively. It's also crucial to remember that the fixed point is not located on the fixed line. A parabola is a locus of any point that is equally distant from a given point (focus) and a certain line (directrix). An essential curve of the coordinate geometry's conic sections is the parabola.

For the given question,

Vertex of parabola is (-3,3)

Thus, the equation of the parabola is:

(x-h)^{2}=4(y-k)

(x+3)^{2}= 4(y-3)
