A parabola can be drawn given a focus of (8, -11) and a directrix of y = 7. Write the equation of the parabola in any form.

Check the picture below, so the parabola looks more or less like so, with a "p" distance that is negative since it's opening downwards.

Cost of 7 gallons=$24.50

Cost of 1 gallon=24.50/7=3.5

Cost of 15 gallons=15*3.5=52.5

Cost of 15 gallons will be $52.5

The answer is in the image 

For every 8 cars there are 7 trucks

Therefore,

Cars:Truck=8:7

Answer is B)8:7

F=ma

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

Salesperson will make 6% of 1800

=(6/100)*1800

=108

Salesperson will make $108 in $1800 sales

The answer is in the image 

The solution is given in the image below

Here,

tip=18%of $32

tip=(18/100)*32

=0.18*32

=$5.76

Total payment=32+5.76=$37.76

The wood before starting =12 feet

Left wood=6 feet

Wood used till now=12-6=6 feet

Picture frame built till now= 6/(3/4)

=8 pieces

Therefore, till now 8 pieces have been made.
