10+8h=66
minus 10 both sides
8h=56
divide both sides by 8
h=7

The first time I solved this problem, I did it in a way that I had to
mess with changing fractions to common denominators and all that.
Suddenly, however, the clean and easy way to do it dawned on me.
Here it is:
-- There are 56 marble in the bag.
-- The probability of pulling a red marble is 5/8, so
5/8 of the 56 marbles must be red.
5/8 of 56 = 35 red marbles.
-- The probability of pulling a green marble is 1/7,
so 1/7 of the 56 marbles must be green.
1/7 of 56 = 8 green marbles.
-- The red and green marbles make up (35 + 8) = 43
of the 56 marbles in the bag.
-- The rest of them are yellow.
There are (56 - 43) = 13 yellow marbles in the bag.
-- The probability of pulling a yellow marble is 13/56 . (about 23.2%)
No messy fractions at all !
That's the way I like it !

Answer:
c = 9 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
In this situation, one is to find the 'c' : that is, the distance between the vertex and the focus.
Given that, the equation for a vertical parabola:
y = (1/4c)(x-h)^2 + k
Supposing we place our parabola at the center, our equation becomes:
y = (1/4c)x^2
.
The problem gives us a point on the parabola: (12,4)
Then insert it in and solve for 'c':
y = (1/4c)x^2
4 = (1/4c)12^2
4 = (1/4c)144
4 = (1/c)36
4c = 36
c = 36/4
c = 9 feet
the line go through 2 points ( -4 ; -5 ) and ( 6 ; 4 )
