Maya and Sally were the two finalists in a singing competition. The person with the most votes from the audience was chosen as t

he winner. Sally received 25% of the total votes and lost by 62,500 votes. No person in the audience was allowed to vote more than once. The equation below represents this situation, where y is the total number of votes cast and x is the number of votes Maya received:
x − 62,500 = 0.25y

If a total of 125,000 people voted, how many votes did Maya receive? Do not enter comma for placeholder values.

One solution, infinite solution, or no solution for 9x+8y=15 and 9x+8y=30
stira [4]
Best way to solve would be using Elimination Method. Here's how to solve.
9x + 8y = 15
9x + 8y = 30
To cancel out a variable multiply one equation with -1.
9x + 8y = 15
-1(9x + 8y = 30)
Distribute.
9x + 8y = 15
-9x - 8y = -30
Add both equations together.
0 = -15
So no solution would be your answer. I hope this helps love! :)

The parent function f(x) = x2 is translated such that the function g(x) = –x2 + 6x – 5 represents the new function.
zhenek [66]

Answer:

g(x) has an axis of symmetry at x = 3.

g(x) is shifted right 3 units from the graph of f(x)

g(x) is shifted up 4 units from the graph of f(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent function is:

f(x)=x^2

The transformed function is g(x)=-x^2+6x-5.

This new function can be rewritten in the vertex form as:

g(x)=-(x-3)^2+4

This function is obtained by shifting the parent function 3 units right and 4 units up.

The axis of symmetry is x=3;(x=h) and h=3.

There is no horizontal stretch or compression.

The new function is however reflected in the x-axis

Prove that 3^17−3^15+3^13 is divisible by 73.
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

3^13*73

Step-by-step explanation:

3^17-3^15+3^13 So you factor out 3^13

=3^13(3^4-3^2+1)

3^4-3^2+1=73

3^13*73

Is this RSM?

Someone help me on this please!
swat32

Answer:

x = 15 cm


Step-by-step explanation:


All the ratio of corresponding sides should be equal


10 corresponds to x

16 corresponds to 24

12 corresponds to 18


<em>Finding the ratio of the known pairs:</em>

  • \frac{16}{24}=\frac{2}{3}
  • \frac{12}{18}=\frac{2}{3}

<em>Similarly 10 is to x should be 2 is to 3. Finding x:</em>

\frac{10}{x}=\frac{2}{3}\\10*3=2x\\30=2x\\x=\frac{30}{2}\\x=15


So x = 15.
