A class of 33 students elected a class treasurer. There were 11 votes for Candidate A and 15 votes for Candidate B. The remainin

vovangra [49]

To start out, notice that you want the percent of voters that chose candidate A, not the percent of the class that chose candidate A.

Your fraction should be "number that chose candidate A" out of "number of voters," which is the same thing as saying:
"number that chose candidate A" divided by "number of voters"

1) The numerator of the fraction should be the number of votes for candidate A, which is 11.

2) The denominator of the fraction should be the number of voters. You're told that "t<span>here were 11 votes for Candidate A and 15 votes for Candidate B," so there are:
</span> $11 + 15 \: total \: votes$

3) Finally put parts 1 and 2 together into a fraction and multiply by 100 to get your percent. That is your final answer:
$\frac{11}{11+15} \times 100$

----

Answer: Top right choice, $\frac{11}{11+15} \times 100$

Help gai I need help its a math

dem82 [27]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting in slope-intercept form.

x - 2y = 0

Add -x on both sides.

- 2y = 0 - x

Divide both sides by -2.

y = 0/-2 - x/-2

y = 0 - - 1/2x

y = 0 + 1/2x

y = 1/2x + 0

The slope is 1/2, the y-intercept is at (0, 0).

Help. Solving Multi Step Ratio Problems!

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Part 1) $30\ coupons$

Part 2) $12\ sandwiches$

Part 3) $60\ push-ups$

Part 4) $96\ minutes$

Part 5) $\$95$

Part 6) $1\frac{7}{8}\ cups\ of\ pretzel$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) we know that

At the Green House of Salad , you get a $1 coupon for every 3 salads you buy

so

Using proportion

Find out the number of salads you could buy to get $10 in coupons

$\frac{1}{3}=\frac{10}{x} \\\\x=3(10)\\\\x=30\ coupons$

Part 2) we know that

Kim orders catering for $35

She spend $5 on a large order of potato salad and the rest on turkey sandwiches

Each sandwich is $2.50

How many sandwiches does Kim buy?

step 1

Find out how many Kim spent on turkey sandwiches

Subtract $5 from $35

35-5=$30

step 2

Using proportion, find out the number of sandwiches

so

$\frac{1}{2.50}=\frac{x}{30}\\\\x=30/2.50\\\\x= 12\ sandwiches$

Part 3) we know that

Molly does 10 push-ups at the same time as Liza does 15 push-ups

so

Using proportion

Find out how many push-ups Liza does when Molly does 40 push-ups

$\frac{10}{15}=\frac{40}{x}\\\\x=15(40)/10\\\\x=60\ push-ups$

Part 4) we know that

A shark swim at a speed of 25 miles per hour

The shark rest after 40 miles

How long in minutes, does the shark swim before resting?

Using proportion

Find out how long in minutes the shark swim 40 miles

Remember that

$1\ h=60\ min$

$\frac{25}{60}\ \frac{miles}{minutes}=\frac{40}{x}\ \frac{miles}{minutes}\\\\x=60(40)/25\\\\x=96\ minutes$

Part 5) we know that

For every bar of soap that Aly sells, she earns $5

For every mug that Janet sells, she earns twice as much as Aly

Aly sells 5 bars of soap and Janet sells 7 mugs

How much money did they make altogether?

step 1

Find out the amount earned by Aly

using proportion

$\frac{1}{5}=\frac{5}{x}\\\\x=5(5)\\\\x=\$25$

step 2

Find out the amount earned by Janet

Remember that

For every mug that Janet sells, she earns twice as much as Aly

so

For every mug that Janet sells, she earns 2($5)=$10

using proportion

$\frac{1}{10}=\frac{7}{x}\\\\x=10(7)\\\\x=\$70$

step 3

Adds the amount earned by Aly plus the amount earned by Janet

$25+70=\$95$

Part 6) we know that

Ted is making trail mix for a party

He mixes 1 1/2 cups of nuts, 1/4 cup of rising and 1/4 cup of pretzel

How many cups of pretzel does Ted need to make 15 cups of trail mix?

Adds the quantities

$1\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4} +\frac{1}{4}=2\ cups\ of \ trail\ mix$

That means

For every 2 cups of trail mix we need 1/4 cup of pretzel

using proportion

Find out how many cups of pretzel does Ted need to make 15 cups of trail mix

$\frac{2}{(1/4)}=\frac{15}{x}\\\\x=15(1/4)/2\\\\x=\frac{15}{8}\ cups\ of\ pretzel$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{15}{8}=\frac{8}{8}+\frac{7}{8}=1\frac{7}{8}\ cups\ of\ pretzel$
