60 more students voted for Kevin

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

total students = 300

Voted for Jennifer = 40%

Voted for Kevin = 60%

We will find number of students for one of them and then will subtract from total to find the others.

So,

Students who voted for Jennifer:

$= 40\%\ of\ 300\\=0.40*300\\=120\ students$

Students who voted for Kevin

= $=Total\ students-Students\ who\ voted\ for\ Jennifer\\=300-120\\=180\ students$

In order to calculate that how many more students voted for Kevin :

180-120 = 60

Hence,

60 more students voted for Kevin

-15 + 12x = 5x + 7 -3x SOLVE FOR X

Natali [406]

Answer: $x=\frac{11}{5}$

Simplify both sides of the equation

$-15+12x=5x+7+-3x$

$12x-15=(5x+-3x)+(7)$ (Combine Like Terms)

$12x-15=2x+7$

Subtract 2x from both sides

$12x-15-2x=2x+7-2x\\10x-15=7$

Divide both sides by 10

$\frac{10x}{10} =\frac{22}{10}$

$x=\frac{11}{5}$

Please help me with this one!!

Tema [17]

Answer:

$21 in^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The square in the middle has a length and width of 3, so multiply. 9.

All of the triangles have a base of 3 and a height of 2. The area equation for triangles is

$A=bh\frac{1}{2}$

So base*height is 6. Divide that by 2 or multiply by 1/2.

You get 3. There are 4 triangles, so multiply that by 4. 12.

Add 12 and 9 together, and you get:

$21 in^{2}$

I hope this helps!

Callie evaluated the expression 0.42 times 4.73 using the steps shown below. 0.42 times 4.73 = 1.26. 1.26 + 29.40 + 168.00 = 198

Andrej [43]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Callie multiplied incorrectly

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have 0.42 × 4.73 = 1.9866 then

1.9866 + 29.4 + 168 = 199.3866

Therefore, from the question, we had 0.42 × 4.73 = 1.26 which is incorrect, meaning that Callie multiplied incorrectly

Apparently, Callie multiplied as follows;

0.42 × 3 = 1.26 but what was in the question was

0.42 × 4.73 which is equal to 1.9866.

How to determine if a function is even or odd calculus?

aalyn [17]

A function $f(x)$ is even if $f(-x)=f(x)$ , and is odd if $f(-x)=-f(x)$ .

Example:

$f(x)=x^2$ is even, since $f(-x)=(-x)^2=x^2=f(x)$ .

$g(x)=x^3-x$ is odd, since $g(-x)=(-x)^3-(-x)=-x^3+x=-(x^3-x)=-g(x)$ .
