Let the number of votes the loser received be x,

number of votes the winner received = x + 87
total number of votes = 2x + 87
2x + 87 = 373
2x = 286
x = 143
number of votes the winner received = 143 + 87
= 230

She received 230 votes.

Find center,foci, and vertices of ellipse (x+3)^2/21+(y-5)^2/25=1
sasho [114]
I don't know if we can find the foci of this ellipse, but we can find the centre and the vertices. First of all, let us state the standard equation of an ellipse. 

(If there is a way to solve for the foci of this ellipse, please let me know! I am learning this stuff currently.) 

\frac{(x-x_{1})^2}{a^2}+ \frac{(y-y_{1})^2}{b^2}=1

Where (x_{1},y_{1}) is the centre of the ellipse. Just by looking at your equation right away, we can tell that the centre of the ellipse is: 

(-3,5)

Now to find the vertices, we must first remember that the vertices of an ellipse are on the major axis. 

The major axis in this case is that of the y-axis. In other words, 

b^2>a^2 

So we know that b=5 from your equation given. The vertices are 5 away from the centre, so we find that the vertices of your ellipse are: 

(-3,10)
 & (-3,0)

I really hope this helped you! (Partially because I spent a lot of time on this lol) 

Sincerely,

What is the square root of -6.76
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

2.6i

Step-by-step explanation:

undo the - by making it:  √-6.76= √6.76 x  √-1

then,  √-1 would be converted to imaginary number -> i

now rewrite it as  √6.76 x i or i√6.76 which is the same as the squareroot of 6.76 which is 2.6 times i.

Then just write your final answer as 2.6i

Answer:

d. 84.5

Step-by-step explanation:

You will have to put the numbers in order than cross out one from each side;

70x

80x

83      

86      

88x

88x

In doing this you have taken out B,E, and F.  The answer would have to be somewhere in between 83 and 86, which would be around 84 and 85, so therefore the answer would be 84.5
