26 is a part of the whole. the proportion should be set up:

(26/x) = (5/100) It's the overall enrollment that is being asked.

If you also need to solve: Cross multiply, 26(100) = 5x, 2600 = 5x, divide both sides by 5, 520 is the enrollment

Given that (-8,- 7) in on the graph of f(x), find the corresponding point for the fuction f(x -4)
kiruha [24]
The point (x1,y1) on the graph of f(x) is the point (x1-a,y1) for the function
f(x+a)

(-8,-7)=(x1,y1)→x1=-8, y1=-7
f(x-4)=f(x+a)→a=-4

(x1-a, y1)=(-8-(-4), -7)=(-8+4, -7)=(-4,-7)

<span>The corresponding point for the fuction f(x -4) is (-4,-7)</span>
