<u>Answer:</u>

53 Democrats

47 Republicans

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given that the U.S. Senate has 100 members so we can write it in an equation, assuming R to be the number of Republicans and D to be the number of Democrats:

D+R=100 --- (1)

Given that there were 6 more Democrats than​ Republicans, we can write another equation:

D=R+6 --- (2)

Substituting this value of D in (1):

R+6+R=100

2R+6=100

2R=94

R = 47

Finding D:

D+47=100

D = 53

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

Both ratios reduce to the same ratio 3/50, so the restocking fee is proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the $200, the restocking fee is $12, so the ratio of the restocking fee to the price of the item is 12/200.

For the $150, the restocking fee is $9, so the ratio of the restocking fee to the price of the item is 9/150.

Now we find out if the ratios 12/200 and 9/150 are equal.

12/200 = 3/50

9/150 = 3/50

Both ratios reduce to the same ratio 3/50, so the restocking fee is proportional.
