Answer:

137 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

considering an election with 681 votes and 5 candidates up for the election

dividing the votes among'st 5 candidates

= 681 / 5 = 136.2  hence the least number of first-place votes needed by a candidate using the plurality method  would be = 137 votes

136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 = 681 ( dividing the votes equally )

136 + 136 + 136 + 136+136 = 680

hence the remaining vote = 681 - 680 = 1

least first-place vote = 136 + 1 = 137 votes

Examine the graph of the logarithmic function f(x).
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The function f(x) has a vertical asymptote at x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define an asymptote as an infinite aproximation to given value, such that the value is never actually reached.

For example, in the case of the natural logarithm, it is not defined for x = 0.

Then Ln(x) has an asymptote at x = 0 that tends to negative infinity, (but never reaches it, as again, Ln(x) is not defined for x = 0)

So a vertical asymptote will be a vertical tendency at a given x-value.

In the graph is quite easy to see it, it occurs at x = 3 (the graph goes down infinitely, never actually reaching the value x = 3)

Then:

The function f(x) has a vertical asymptote at x = 3

Fernando is making 30 sundaes with mint, chocolate,and vanilla ice cream.1/3 of the Sunday's are mint ice-cream and 1/2 of the r
Alina [70]

Answer:

<u>10 sundaes</u> will be vanilla.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Fernando is making 30 sundaes with mint, chocolate,and vanilla ice cream.

1/3 of the Sunday's are mint ice-cream.

And 1/2 of the remaining sundaes are chocolate.

The rest are vanilla.

Now, to find the number of sundaes that will be vanilla.

Fernando is making sundaes total = 30.

So, the quantity of sundaes that are mint ice-cream:

\frac{1}{3} \ of\ 30\\\\=\frac{1}{3} \times 30\\\\=10.

<em>Thus, 10 sundaes are mint ice-cream.</em>

So, the remaining sundaes are:

30-10=20.

<em>Thus, the remaining sundaes are = 20.</em>

Now, to get the quantity of chocolate sundaes of the remaining sundaes:

\frac{1}{2} \ of\ 20\\\\=\frac{1}{2} \times 20\\\\=10.

<em>Hence, 10 sundaes are chocolate of the remaining 20 sundaes.</em>

<em>As, given the rest are vanilla.</em>

Now, to get the vanilla sundaes we subtract the 10 chocolate ice-cream from the 20 remaining sundaes:

20-10=10.

Therefore, 10 sundaes will be vanilla.
