The formula would be set up as ratios (or fractions). The first ratio is 6:5, which in total is 11. There were 6 yes out of 11, so the fraction = 6/11.

The second fraction has a total of 5918, however you do not know the amount of yes votes, so the variable placeholder will be called "x".

The final formula would be:
 6/11 = x/5918

 You do cross multiplication and you get:
11x = 35508. You divide both sides, and you get x = 3228.

Because x is the placeholder for the amount of yes votes, and x = 3228, the amount of yes votes is 3228

podryga [215]
Hello : 
\frac{5}{a} - \frac{2}{1-a} = \frac{2}{a-1} = \frac{5}{a}+ \frac{2}{a-1} = \frac{2}{a-1}&#10;= \frac{5(a-1)+2a}{a(a-1)} = \frac{2a}{a(a-1)} &#10;(a \neq 1  ,  a \neq 0)&#10;
5a-5 +2a =2a
5a =5
a=1 ( refused)

Find the indicated values g(t)=t^2-t and f(x)=1+x g(f(2)+3)
Semmy [17]

Answer:

g( f(2)+3) = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>step(i)</u>:-

Given function  g(t)=t²-t and f(x)=1+x

given f(x)=1+x

         f(2) = 1 + 2 =3

<u><em>step(ii)</em></u>:-

g( f(2)+3) = g(3 + 3)

              = g(6)

             = (6)² - 6

             = 36 -6

             = 30

<u><em>Conclusion</em></u>:-

g( f(2)+3) = 30

Solve<br> 7+x/3 = 2x-5<br> Give all working out
Ipatiy [6.2K]
X = 36/5
Or x = 7.2


21 + x = 6x - 15
21 = 6x - 15 - x
21 = 5x - 15
21 + 15 = 5x
36 = 5x
36/5 = x
