There are two ways:

1.   (42,000 * 3)/5 =

126000/5 =

25200

2.    42000/5 =

8400*3 =

Now subtract 25200 from original

42000 - 25200 = 16800

16800 votes were not for the winner

If x varies inversley as y and x=4 when y =8, find x when y=1
nikitadnepr [17]

4(8) = 32 = k

Now, xy = 32

         1(x) = 32

           x = 32

TRUE OR FALSE: F(x)=-3(x+2)(x-5)^3&gt;0 when x&lt;-2 or x&gt;5<br> PLEASE HELP!!!!
Hitman42 [59]
F(x) = -3(x + 2)(x - 5)^3 > 0
(x + 2)(x - 5) > 0
x + 2 > 0 or x - 5 < 0
x > -2 or x < 5
-2 < x < 5

Therefore, the stated interval is false.

Maslowich
Y = -5x + 9
y = 5x + 7

5x + 7 = -5x + 9
5x + 5x = 9 - 7
10x = 2
x = 2/10 reduces to 1/5

y = 5x + 7
y = 5(1/5) + 7
y = 1 + 7
y = 8

solution is (1/5,8)
