9 bottles of soda and 10 juice bottles are purchased

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Sugar contained by each soda bottle = 45 grams

Sugar contained by each juice bottle = 35 grams

Let,

x be the number of soda bottles

y be the number of juice bottles

Given that,

<em><u>Ethan purchased a total of 19 bottles of juice</u></em>

Therefore, we get,

x + y = 19 ---------- eqn 1

<em><u>Ethan purchased a total of 19 bottles of juice and soda which collectively contain 755 grams of sugar</u></em>

<em><u>Therefore, we frame a equation as:</u></em>

45 \times x + 35 \times y = 755

45x + 35y = 755 --------- eqn 2

<em><u>Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2</u></em>

<em><u>From eqn 1,</u></em>

x = 19 - y --------- eqn 3

Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2

45(19 - y) + 35y = 755

855 - 45y + 35y = 755

10y = 100

y = 10

<em><u>Substitute y = 10 in eqn 3</u></em>

x = 19 - 10

x = 9

Thus 9 bottles of soda and 10 juice bottles are purchased

Nitella [24]

Answer: 6456

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of yes to no= 7:5

Number if yes= 3766

Since total number of yes is 3766. To find the total number of votes, 3766 / (7/7+5)

= 3766/ (7/12)

= 3766 × 12/7

= 45192/7

= 6456

There were 6456 total votes
