65% = .65 and 25%=.25
so if we take .25 x .65 we get .1625
multiply .1625 by 100 to get the percent and we get 16.25%

In a school election, Juan received 4 times as many votes as Wayne, Neal recurved twenty less votes than Juan, and Kerry got hal

77julia77 [94]

Votes received by Wayne is 112

Solution:

To find: votes received by Wayne

Let the vote received by Wayne be "x"

Juan received 4 times as many votes as Wayne

Therefore,

Juan votes = 4 times as many votes as Wayne

Juan votes = 4x ---- eqn 1

Neal received twenty less votes than Juan

Neal votes = twenty less votes than Juan

Neal votes = Juan votes - 20

Neal votes = 4x - 20 ---- eqn 2

Kerry got half as many votes as Neal

Kerry votes = half of neal votes

Kerry votes = $\frac{4x - 20}{2}$ ---- eqn 3

The total votes cast in the election was 1,202

Wayne votes + Juan votes + Neal votes + Kerry votes = 1202

Plug in eqn 1 , eqn 2, eqn 3

$x + 4x + 4x - 20 + \frac{(4x - 20)}{2} = 1202\\\\2x + 8x + 8x - 40 + 4x - 20 = 1202 \times 2\\\\22x - 60 = 2404\\\\22x = 2404 + 60\\\\22x = 2464\\\\x = 112$

Therefore votes received by Wayne is 112

In a square,the sum of the length of three sides is 48 and in a rectangle the difference between a length and width is 7 in if a

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a square are all the same length, so if 3 of them total 48, one of them must be 48/3 = 16.

If the length of the rectangle is 7 longer than the side of the square, it is

... 16 + 7 = 23

URGENT WILL MARK BRAINLIEST Show your work and solve for x and y. 3x + y = 8 2x + 4y = 12

mars1129 [50]

3x+y=8--(1)

2x+4y=12

x+2y=6--(2)

(1)×1 and (2)×3

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 3x+y=8$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 3x+6y=18$

Subtract both

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow -5y=-10$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=\dfrac{-10}{-5}$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow y=2$

Put the value in eq(2)

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x+2(2)=6$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x+4=6$

$\\ \rm\Rrightarrow x=6-4=2$
