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

Which graph represents the linear function y = x 3/4– 4?
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=\frac{3}{4}x-4

This is a linear equation (the graph is a line)

To identify the graph find out the intercepts

<u><em>Find out the y-intercept</em></u>

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

For x=0

y=\frac{3}{4}(0)-4=-4

The y-intercept is the point (0,-4)

<u><em>Find out the x-intercept</em></u>

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

For y=0

0=\frac{3}{4}x-4

\frac{3}{4}x=4

x=16/3=5.33

The x-intercept is the point (5.33,0)

therefore

The graph in the attached figure

Elle decreased her monthly budget from $250 to $200. Calculate the percent decrease
kirill [66]
Formula for finding percent change (increase or decrease) is amount of the change divided by the original amount.

Here, the amount of the change is 50 and the original amount is 250.

50/250= 0.2

Multiply by 100 to get percent.

20% decrease (because budget went down)
