Answer:

Please read answers below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's answer all the questions about the election.

1. How many votes does Candidate Smith claim?

Candidate Smith claimed 52% of 5,000

Candidate Smith claimed 0.52 * 5,000 = 2,600

<u>Candidate Smith claimed 2,600 votes</u>

2. What is the total of the vote count you just calculated for Candidate Smith and the 2,681 votes Candidate Adams claims?

Total votes claimed = 2,600 + 2,681

<u>Total votes claimed = 5,281</u>

3. What percentage of the votes does Candidate Adams claim? Do not round your result?

<u>Percentage of the votes claimed by Candidate Adams = 2,681/5,000 = 53.62%</u>

4. What is the total of the percentage of votes that you just calculated for Candidate Adams and the 52% of votes that Candidate Smith claims? Do not round.

Total percentage of votes claimed by both candidates = 53.62 + 52

<u>Total percentage of votes claimed by both candidates = 105.62%</u>

u got the first 2 correct

percentage of votes Adams claims :

so he claims 2681 out of 5281..

2681 / 5281 = (jeez...u dont want it rounded)...ok....its :

0.50766900208 which equals 50.766900208 % <==

the total of the percentages :

52% + 50.766900208% = 102.766900208 % <==

Type the correct answer in each box. Use numerals instead of words.

stira [4]

The system of equations when been placed in a matrix yields

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}650&-1\\120&1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-175\\25080\end{array}\right]$

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Given the equation:

y = 650x + 175 and;

y = 25080 - 120x

Rearranging the equations gives:

650x - y = -175 and;

120x + y = 25080

Placing the equations in a matrix gives:

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}650&-1\\120&1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-175\\25080\end{array}\right]$

The system of equations when been placed in a matrix yields

$\left[\begin{array}{ccc}650&-1\\120&1\end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-175\\25080\end{array}\right]$

write an equation for a function at has a graph with the given characteristics. the shape of y=|x| is reflected across the y-axi

Luba_88 [7]

Refrection across the y-axis changes the function to y = |-x|.
Vertical stretch by a factor of 1.5 changes the graph to y = 1.5|-x|
Shifting the graph by 4 units downward changes the graph to y = 1.5|-x| - 4

Required equation is y = 1.5|-x| - 4
