Answer:
D. 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two ways that I do this. Both of them are probably not what your teacher tells you, but hey, I got the right answer.
The first method is to go through the answers and do 14 x .10, 14 x .20, and so on until you get 3.50.
The second method is to do 14/3.5, which equals 4. This means 14 can be broken up into 3.50 four times. So, 3.50 is 1/4 of 14. What is 1/4 of 100%? 25%.
Answer: The question is incomplete
Step-by-step explanation: The answer to this question cannot be determined correctly since an important detail is missing.
However, let me explain how you would normally go about it by using an example of mine. If for example the ratio of yes votes to no votes was 8 to 5, and the question requires you to calculate how many yes votes were there as indicated in your question, then the first step would be to find the total number of both sides of the ratio. That is add 8 to 5 which gives you 13. This means if there was a total of 13 votes cast, every yes vote stands for 8 out of 13 votes and every no vote stands for 5 out of 13 votes.
To express it mathematically, every yes vote would be 8/13 of the total (12779) and every no vote would be 5/13 of the total (12779).
Therefore to determine how many yes votes there was, is calculated as follows;
Let yes votes be y and no votes be x'
y = (8/13) * 12779
y = 102232/13
y = 7864
<em>Based on my example that the ratio of yes votes to no votes is 8 to 5, </em>
Then the number of yes votes was 7,864.
Answer: PART A : 
= 
PART B : 5.9 FEET
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the first sign = 4.4 feet
height of the first sign = 3 feet
Length of the second sign = x feet
height of the second sign = 4 feet
If two shapes are similar , then the ratio of their sides are equal,
That is ;
= 
PART A
=
PART B
=
cross multiplying , we have
3x = 4.4 x 4
3x = 17.6
Divide through by 3
x = 17.6/3
x = 5.86666666666667
x≈ 5.9 feet
Therefore , the length of the new sign is 5.9 feet
X Coordinate: (-3a + 3a)/2
0/2 = 0
Y Coordinate: (b + b)/2
2b/2 = b
Midpoint: (calculated x, calculated y)
In this case, the midpoint should be (0, b)
2.25 as a fraction is 2 1/4
