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

Solve 5n – 7p + 3n = 25p for n.

saul85 [17]

5n – 7p + 3n = 25p

Combine like terms

8n - 7p = 25p

Add (7p) to both sides

8n - 7p + 7p = 25p + 7p

Simplifying

8n = 32p

Divide both sides by 8

8n / 8 = 32p / 8

Simplifying

n = 4p

a contractor is building a new subdivision on the outside of a city. he has started work on the first street and is planning for

monitta

The equation of the location of the second street in standard form is

x + y = -6

Equation of the line:

The equation of the line represents the algebraic form of representing the set of points, which together form a line in a coordinate system.

The equation of the line can be formed with the help of the slope of the line and a point on the line.

The general form of the equation of a line with a slope m and passing through the point (x₁,y₁) is given as:

y = mx + b.

Where

m represents the slope of the line.

Given,

Point = ( -5 , -1)

Here we need to find the equation of the location.

For that, first we have to find the slope of the line,

Having two points in the format (x,y), the slope is given by the change in y divided by the change in x.

The equation of the street is parallel to the equation of the line in the graph, thus they have the same slope.

So, in street 1 the equation is

=> y =-x +1

And street 2 the equation is

=> y =-x +b,

solve for b by plugging in (-5,-1)

=> -1 =-(-5) +b

=> b= -1-5 = -6

=> b = -6

Now apply the value of b on the equation,

Then

=> y = -x -6

=> y + x = -6

So, the equation of the location is x + y = -6.
