Answer:
Guess and Conjecture
Step-by-step explanation:
Conjecture is simply an opinion gotten from an incomplete information .Fro example. 10 boys selected from Nigeria were served pizza. None of them ate pizza.
it is a conjecture to conclude that all the males in Nigeria do not eat pizza, because the information is incomplete
Guess is almost similar to conjecture. It is conclusion from incomplete information. It is based on one's personal opinion. Guess can be true or false. it is underprobaility and hence cant be banked upon to explain a proof.
First, let's convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction (trust me, mixed fraction are pretty much the worst things to deal with, especially with higher level math):


Then, to subtract, since you need a common denominator, I would multiply the second fraction by 2 to get:

Now that we have a common denominator, we are ready to subtract:

Since that's the most simplified form, and you have been asked the question in a mixed fraction form, let's convert that to a mixed fraction. The remainder of the numerator divided by the denominator is 1, and the quotient is 3. The denominator stays the same. So, this is what results:

And that's your answer:

Hope this all makes sense. If anything doesn't, feel free to tell me!
The first step to solve this question is to find out what 5/6 of 54000 is. So we multiply 5/6 by 54000. Why? Because there's the word "of" and "of" is usually associated in multiplication. So:
5/6 × 54000 = 45000.
So now we know that 5/6 of 54000 is 45000. So it means that she needs 45000 from senior citizens. But the question doesn't stop there, it also asks us to solve for the amount of votes she needs to win other than senior citizens.
Now we know that 45000 seniors need to vote for her we subtract 45000 to the total amount which is 54000.
54000 - 45000 is 9000.
So it means that she needs 9000 voters other than senior citizens to win the election for city council.
Answer:
The answers are that a = -5 and b = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find A and B, we first need to find the equation of the line. We can do this by using two ordered pairs and the slope formula. For the purpose of this activity, I'l use (0, 5) and (-3, 11)
m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (11 - 5)/(-3 - 0)
m = 6/-3
m = -2
Now that we have this we can model this using point-slope form.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 5 = -2(x - 0)
y - 5 = -2x
y = -2x + 5
Now that we have the modeled equation we can use the ordered pair (a, 15) to solve for a.
y = -2x + 5
15 = -2(a) + 5
10 = -2a
-5 = a
And we can also solve for b using the ordered pair (2, b)
y = -2x + 5
b = -2(2) + 5
b = -4 + 5
b = 1
