95 x 100= 9500
9500 divided by 160= 59.375
your answer is 59.375

You can write it several ways. Here are two:

1) Proportion
160/1.00=x/0.95
(160 is the whole, 1.00 or 100%, and x is 95% of the whole. Solve for x.)
x=160*0.95 = 152/1 = 152
 1.00

2) Simple multiplication expression
"of" in math almost always means "multiply"
95% becomes 0.95. Multiply 0.95 by 160 to get your answer.
0.95*160=152

Either way, you get 152, so that is your final answer.

What is the focus of the parabola given the equation y=x^2+4x-1

IrinaK [193]

Let's first rewrite it in vertex form.
Start by completing the square.
y = x² + 4x + 4 - 4 - 1
y = (x + 2)² - 5
(x + 2)² = y + 5

Now, 4a = 1; a = $\frac{1}{4}$

So, the vertex form is (x + 2)² = 4( $\frac{1}{4}$ )(y + 5)
So, we know that the vertex is at (-2, -5).
Since it's a concave up parabola, we just have to change the y-value to find the focus.

∴ F(-2, -5 + $\frac{1}{4}$ )
F(-2, $\frac{-19}{4}$ )
