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

Suppose f (x )right arrow 250 and g (x )right arrow 0 with ​g(x)greater than0 as x right arrow 5. Determine ModifyingBelow lim W
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The limit is \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{250}{0} = \infty

Step-by-step explanation:

The  equation given are

     f(x)  \to  250

and   g(x) \to 0

with g(x) > 0 \ as\   x ---> 5

The objective is to obtain

      \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}

This mathematically evaluated as

        \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{250}{0}

      = \lim_{x \to 5} \frac{250}{0} = \infty

A sales associate in a department store earns a commission on each suit and each pair of shoes sold. One week, she earned $47 in
ikadub [295]
Let h shoes and s suit:

3s+h=47

7s+2h=107

substitution property:

3s=47-h

s=(47-h)/3

plug it into the other equation and solve for h:


7((47-h)/3)+2h=107

distribute 7 and multiply 3 on both sides:

329-7h+6h = 321

329-h=321

-h=-8

h=8 pair of shoes

s=(47-8)/3=13 suits

Can someone help me? I am multiplying 2/10 x 2/1. Why do you multiply 2/10 X 2/10?
Leona [35]
In both instances, there is a 20% chance that he gets a striped sweater. 2 x 2/10 is not the same as 2/10 x 2/10. You have to do 2/10 x 2/10, because there's a 20% chance he gets it first, and then 20% he gets it again. The chance he gets it twice in a row should be 4 out of 100 or 1 out of 25. A very slim chance
