when you get this kind of exercise, you find need to find y or x in one of the exactions and fill it in in the other, however in this exercise the two y's are already given so all you need to do is replace the y in one of the exactions with the other exactions like this:

(keep in mind, you need to keep writing both of the exactions over again, otherwise you'll lose an exaction. and we'll need it later on)

y=-2x+6

y=3x-4

y=-2x+6

-2x+6=3x-4

y=-2x+6

-2x-3x=-4-6

y=-2x+6

-5x=-10

y=-2x+6

x= 2

and now replace the x in the first exaction with the x that we found:

y=-2(2)+6

x=2

y=-4+6

x=2

y=2

x=2

Suppose that Sahil knows that 45 people with the ages of 18 to 19 voted. With out using a calculator, he quickly says then 135 p

Amiraneli [1.4K]

So you are given that 45 people in the age range of 18 to 29 who voted make up 10% of the total voters.

And you also know that 30% of the voters are in the age range of 30-49. And you need to find out how many people aged 30-49 voted.

So 10% of the total make up 45 people.
That means for 30% of the total number people, there would be 45 x 3 people, or 135 people. Because 10% x 3 = 30%

So, great job! :D
