What is a parabola?</h3>
- A parabola is a planar curve that is mirror-symmetrical and roughly U-shaped in mathematics.
- It fits various seemingly disparate mathematical descriptions, all of which can be shown to define the same curves.
- A point and a line are two ways to describe a parabola.
To find the value of k:
Where (a, b) is the vertex and c is the constant.
- (a, b) = (-4, k)
- y - k = c (x - (- 4))²
- y - k = c (x + 4)²
So,
- x = 0, y = 12
- 12 - k = 16c
- k = 12 - 16c ...... (1)
Then,
- (-3, 7) = (x, y)
- 7 - k = c (1)²
- k = 7 - c ...... (2)
Now,
- 12 - 16c = 7 - c
- 12 - 7 = 16c - c
- 5 = 15c
- c = 5/15 = 1/3
So, the value of k:
- k = 12 - 16 (1/3) = 12 - 16/3 = 36-16/3 = 20/3
Therefore, the value of k is (A) 20/3.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a-number of advance tickets
s-number of same day tickets
a*40+s*25=2400
a +s =75
I solve with the substitution method
s=75-a
40a+25*(75-a)=2400
40a+1875-25a=2400
15a=2400-1875
15a=525
a=525/15
a=35
so s=75-35
s=40
