Winners in primary elections in TX are determined by majority vote. If no candidate receives 50% of the vote, then the top 2 candidates proceed to a run-off election.
So in the above problem, since nobody received the majority vote of 50%, the candidate X and candidate Y are going to proceed to a run-off election to determine the democratic candidate for governor
Since both equations are equal to y, set them equal to each other and solve.
-7/8 x + 1/4 = -3/4x + 1/2
Multiply each term by the LCD 8.
8(-7/8)x+8(1/4)=8(-3/4)x+8(1/2)
-7x + 2 = -6x + 4
Add 7x to both sides
2 = x + 4
Subtract 4 from both sides
-2 = x
Plug -2 into one of the original equations and solve for y.
y = (-3/4)(-2) + (1/2)
y = (3/2) + (1/2)
y = 2
(-2, 2)
I believe the answer is 5t
6s7t-6s2t = 5t
Answer:
4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
it takes thirty minutes to water 1/8 of a lawn, so you will water 2/8 every hour. 8 divided by 2 is 4.
Answer:
y = -2x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for slope is y=mx+b.
(m = slope and b = y-intercept)
Plug in the numbers and you get your equation.
