Answer:

3,500 no votes

Step-by-step explanation:

There were 7 yes votes to every 4 no votes.  There were a total of 6,125 yes votes, so set up a proportion to find the number of no votes

Let x represent the number of no votes

7 is to 4 as 6,125 is to x

We get

7/4 = 6,125/x

Now solve for x

First cross multiply

7x = 24,500

Divide both sides by 7 to isolate x..

x = 3,500 no votes

Use row operations to solve the system.
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

x = 2, y = 7, z = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y - z = -3 (1)

3x - y + z = 11 (2)

x - 4y + z = -14 (3)

add (1) and (2)

4x = 8 x = 2

add (1) and (3)

2x - 3y = -17

2(2) - 3y = -17

-3y = -17 - 4

-3y = -21

y = 7

Find z using any equation

x + y - z = -3

2 + 7 - z = -3

9 - z = -3

z = 12
