Solve the problem.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 10 feet and a depth of 4 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 p is given by the equation 
How far from the base of the dish should the receiver be placed?

Solve the problem.Mendel found that flower color in certain pea plants obeyed this scheme: Pure red crossed with pure white produces red. When pure red (RR) and pure white (rr) parents are crossed, the resulting Rr combination (one of each gene) produces second generation offspring with red flowers, since red is dominant. Suppose one of these second generation Rr flowers is crossed with a pure white. What is the probability that the resulting plant will have red flowers?
