Point are set up (x,y) you sub the number for x into the equation and see if you get the number for y.
y=4x+3
y=4 (5)+3
y=20+3
y=23
so A isn't the answer
y=4 (17)+3
y=68+3
y=71
B isn't the answer
y=4 (4)+3
y=16+3
y=19
and because 4 is the x value for c and d and there can only be 1 y value for each x you're answer is C because when x=4 y =19 or (4,19)

Answer:
2,500 German chocolate cake boxes.
1,500 Swiss chocolate cake boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'S' be the number of Swiss chocolate cakes boxed and 'G' the number of German cholocate cakes boxed. If all of the available ingredients are used:

Solving the linear system above:

2,500 German chocolate cake boxes and 1,500 Swiss chocolate cake boxes can be made each day.
Check the picture below, so the parabola looks more or less like that.
now, the vertex is half-way between the focus point and the directrix, so that puts it where you see it in the picture, and the horizontal parabola is opening to the left-hand-side, meaning that the distance "P" is negative.
