Answer:
XY = 8 and YZ = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
If XY and YZ are on the one line, we can write
XY + YZ = 28
(2x+2) + (9x - 7) = 28
2x+2 + 9x - 7 = 28
11x - 5 = 28
11x = 33
x = 3
XY = 2x+2 = 2*3 + 2 = 8
YZ = 9x - 7 = 9*3 - 7 = 27 - 7 = 20
The formula would be set up as ratios (or fractions). The first ratio is 6:5, which in total is 11. There were 6 yes out of 11, so the fraction = 6/11.
The second fraction has a total of 5918, however you do not know the amount of yes votes, so the variable placeholder will be called "x".
The final formula would be:
6/11 = x/5918
You do cross multiplication and you get:
11x = 35508. You divide both sides, and you get x = 3228.
Because x is the placeholder for the amount of yes votes, and x = 3228, the amount of yes votes is 3228
The greatest common factor is 32
Answer:
400cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Total surface area of a prism includes the area of the top and bottom triangle sides of the prism, plus the area of all 3 rectangular sides.
Base & Bottom triangle area: 2 x [(8 x 15)/2] = 120cm²
Side triangle area: 17 x 7 + 8 x 7 + 15 x 7 = 280cm²
Total surface area = 280 + 120 = 400cm²

Step-by-step explanation:
The nth term of an AP is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₅ is double a₇ , then
a₁ + 4d = 2(a₁ + 6d) , that is
a₁ + 4d = 2a₁ + 12d ( subtract a₁ from both sides )
4d = a₁ + 12d ( subtract 12d from both sides )
- 8d = a₁
The sum of n terms of an AP is
= 
[ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ] , substitute values
= 
( 2(- 8d) + 16d)
= 8.5(- 16d + 16d)
= 8.5 × 0
= 0
