Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A mirror with a parabolic cross section is used to collect sunlight on a pipe located at the focus of the mirror.
The pipe is located 8 inches from the vertex of the mirror.
Assume the vertex is at the origin.
If the parabola opens upwards
then the coordinates of focus= (0,8)
We know that equation of parabola with focus (0,a) and open upards is of the form (vertex=(0,0)) is

Substitute the value of a=8 in equation, we get


Therefore, equation of the parabola that models the cross section of the mirror is 
Answer:
$0.85
Step-by-step explanation:
2 juice pouches- $2.50
3c+2.50=5.05 (c is for bags of chips)
3c=5.05-2.50
3c=2.55
c= $0.85
So one bag of chip is $0.85
Answer:
When we do a scale model of something (like a building, a house, or whatever) al the properties of the original thing must also be in the model.
So for example, you want to do a model of a house, and in the backyard of the house there are 4 trees, then in the model of the house you also need to put 4 trees in the backyard (indifferent of the scale of the model).
Then the number of boulders in the really fountain should be the same as the number of boulders in the scale model of the fountain.
Distance traveled by Robert = 292 miles
Time taken by Robert to cover this distance = 4 hours.
Now converting miles in feet.
1 mile = 5280 feet
so, 292 feet = 292 * 5280 = 1541760 feet
Now converting 4 hours in seconds.
1 hour = 3600 seconds
so, 4 hours have 3600 * 4 = 14400 seconds.
Now the question says, we have to find the speed in feet per second

equals,

= 107.067 feet per second
