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.

Round 523,837 to the nearest thousand
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

524,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we mark the two nearest thousands.

They are 523,000 and 524,000.

The midpoint is 523,500.

Ignoring the thousands, ten-thousands, and hundred-thousands place, we have 837.

Now, is 837 closer to 0 or 1000?

It's closer to 1000, so 524,000 is our answer.

Luden [163]
<span><u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Kevin made $800 in commissions last week.

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
Since we know that he only makes money in two ways, by base salary and commission, we know that added together they equal his whole pay.

<u>Therefore we can set up the following equation and solve for his commission amount. </u>
Total Pay = Base Pay + Commissions.
1125 = 325 + Commissions.
800 = Comissions. </span>

A random sample of 38 wheel chair users were asked whether they preferred cushion type A or B, and 28 of them preferred type A w
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

The statement that cushion A is twice as popular as cushion B cannot be verified

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Sample size n=38

Type a size A X_a=28

Type a size B X_b=10  

Generally the probability of choosing cushion A P(a) is mathematically given by

P(a)=\frac{28}{38}

P(a)=0.73

Generally the equation for A to be twice as popular as B is mathematically given by

P(b)+2P(b)=3P

Therefore Hypothesis

Null H_0: p \leq \frac{2P}{3P} \\Altenative H_A:p>\frac{2P}{3P}

Generally the equation normal approx of p value is mathematically given by

z=\frac{x-np_0-0.5}{\sqrt{np_0(1-p_0)} }

z=\frac{28-(38*2/3)_0-0.5}{\sqrt{38*2/3*1/3} }

z=0.75

Therefore from distribution table

Pvalue=1-\theta (0.75)

Pvalue=0.227

Therefore there is no sufficient evidence to disagree with  the Null hypothesis H_0

Therefore the statement that cushion A is twice as popular as cushion B cannot be verified
