What are the rational roots of ? x = 1, x = -1 x = 1, x = 0 x = 1, x = 2 This polynomial has no rational roots.

Riverside Elementary School is holding a school-wide election to choose a school color. Five-eighths of the votes were for blue,

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of votes to choose a color = x

Number of votes for blue = $\frac{5}{8}\times x$

Remaining votes = x - $\frac{5}{8}\times x$

= $\frac{8x-5x}{8}\times x$

= $\frac{3}{8}\times x$

Votes for green = $\frac{5}{9}\times (\text{Remaining votes})}$

= $\frac{5}{9}\times \frac{3x}{8}$

= $\frac{5}{24}\times x$

Finally remaining votes = $\frac{3x}{8}-\frac{5x}{24}$

= $\frac{9x-5x}{24}$

= $\frac{4x}{24}$

= $\frac{x}{6}$

Since these votes are for red therefore,

$\frac{x}{6}$ = 48

x = 48×6

= 288

a) Votes for blue are $\frac{5x}{8}$

Therefore, exact number for blue votes = $\frac{5\times 288}{8}$

= 5×36

= 180

b). Votes for green = $\frac{5x}{24}$

= $\frac{5\times 288}{24}$

= 60

c). Since 25 students were absent on that day of the vote, number of students at Riverside Elementary School = 288 + 25

= 313

d). Since seven tenths of the votes for blue were made by the girls.

Therefore, number of girls voted for blue = $\frac{7}{10}\times 180$

= 7×18

= 126

Since total votes made = 288

Therefore, half of the votes made = $\frac{288}{2}$

= 144

Now it's clear that number of votes made by girls is less than half of all the votes.

e). 126 girls voted for blue.

How would I do this with working ?

You Just want to get Fahrenheit alone on one side of the equal sign. Your teacher forgot to use parenthesis. The correct equation for Celsius to Fahrenheit is: $C= \frac{5}{9} (F-32)$

Which will give you a completely different answer.... $F = \frac{9}{5} C + 32$

****

We will solve it using what is given:

C = (5/9)F - 32

C + 32 = (5/9)F

9(C + 32) = 5F

(9/5)(C + 32) = F

** If they mark you wrong, and try to say the answer is F = (9/5)C + 32 then they shouldn't be teaching math, and you should point out the fact there are no parenthesis around the F - 32 in the given formula.
