You have to be very careful how you set this up. For every girl (who counts as 1) there are 3 boys (who count as 3). The total number in the proportion is 3 + 1 =4. You are given a total, but that is both boys and girls. That's why you need the 4.
3/4 = x / 236 Cross multiply
4x = 3 * 236
4x = 708 Divide by 4
x = 708/4
x = 177
There are 177 boys at the school and 236 - 177 = 59 girls.

Answer:
Option A: (-10,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation of the parabola is in the form of
where the focus is located at
. Therefore, the focus of the parabola is
.
Answer:
You first find two points on the graph. You then count the distance between the two y-values (vertical) then the distance between the two x values (horizontal). The slope is equal to Distance of y-values
________________
Distance of X-Values
That represents a fraction.
Hope this helped and have a great day,

D = (5-1)/(13-(-3)) = 0.25
f(13) = 13d + x = 13 * 0.25 + a = 3.25 + a = 5
a = 1.75
f(x) = 1.75 + 0.25x
