Solve Applied Problems Involving Parabolas
-A satellite dish is in the shape of a parabolic surface. Signals coming from a satellite strike the surface of the dish and are reflected to the focus, where the receiver is located. The satellite dish shown has a diameter of 6 feet and a depth of 6 feet. The parabola is positioned in a rectangular coordinate system with its vertex at the origin. The receiver should be placed at the focus . The value of is given by the equation . How far from the base of the dish should the receiver be placed?.

Solve Applied Problems Involving Hyperbolas
-Two recording devices are set 3200 feet apart, with the device at point A to the west of the device at point B. At a point on a line between the devices, 400 feet from point B, a small amount of explosive is detonated. The recording devices record the time the sound reaches each one. How far directly north of site B should a second explosion be done so that the measured time difference recorded by the devices is the same as that for the first detonation?
