so h = 7, k = -2, meaning the vertex is at (7, -2).
the squared variable is the "y", meaning is a horizontal parabola.
the "p" distance is negative, for a horizontal parabola that means, it's opening towards the left-hand-side.
we know the focus and directrix are "p" units away from the vertex, and we know the parabola is opening horizontally towards the left-hand-side.
the focus is towards it opens 1 unit away, at (6, -2).
the directrix is on the opposite direction, 1 unit away, at (8, -2), namely x = 8.
Answer:
$35
Step-by-step explanation:
If $21 is 60% of the original price, then the original price is ...
21 = 0.60p
21/0.60 = p = 35
The original price is $35.00.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
move the terms with
to the left side of the equation:
add 3x to both sides

add 3x and 3x

move all term not containing
to the right side:
add 1 to both sides of the equation


divide each term by 6


simplify the fraction

Okay so the first thing we should do here is round 5.29 rounds to 5.30 3.59 rounds to 3.60 and 4.79 rounds to 4.80 now add all of those up youll get 13.7 you can round that to 14 so samanthas estimate is accurate
