Ellen is incorrect, -3 subtracted by 3 gets you -6. Ellen is wrong because she subtracted -3 instead of just 3. Subtracting a negative number is the same thing as adding.

I believe 30, because there are six ways in and five ways out, five because you can't go back through the same entrance. So six times five is thirty.

 b: growth rate
 t: time
 We then have the following equation:
 y = 57 (1.31) ^ t

Write an equation of a parabola that opens to the left, has a vertex at the origin, and a focus at (–9, 0.
Georgia [21]
The standard equation of parabola:

(y-k)²=4p(x-h), with:

a) vertex = (h,k)

b) focus = (h+p, k)

c) directrix = (x=h-p)


Since this parabola has a vertex at (0,0) that means h=k=0

Hence the equation becomes: y²=4px, let's calculate p:
focus is given (-9,0) Remember h+p = -9 & since h=0, then p= -9
===> y²= - 36x
