A nice riddle, mathematical riddle.
Assuming a turtle winning means the declared winner is the weaker one actually won over the stronger one. In this context, the turtle winner is the one who has a lesser number of favourable votes.
The given rules for the points are as follows:
1. Point for the first choice must be greater than or equal to that of the second choice.
2. All points must be positive whole numbers.
Let's suppose we have Henry against Tim.
Henry is favourite of the voters and is the leading candidate, according to popular polls.
Tim is an excellent manipulator, sly, and everybody knows this.
On polling day, the vote count came out as follows (in point counts)
Henry Tim
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
2 1
10 1 (Henry's own vote)
1 100 (Tim's own vote)
------------------
17 107 TOTAL POINTS
So Tim the turtle was declared winner of the race, and since everything was according to rule, even a recount of the votes did not change the results.
Be aware, voting by districts (instead of popular votes) also exhibits a similar problem.
Answer:
33
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of the secant segment lengths is a constant.
... TC×CV = UC×CW
... 14(2x+2) = 12(2x+5) . . . . substitute the values from the diagram
... 28x +28 = 24x +60 . . . . eliminate parentheses
... 4x = 32 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -28-24x
... x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
UW = 12 + 2x + 5 = 17+2·8 . . . . UW = UC + CW
UW = 33
Answer:
hlo XD
no its not looking difficult
it is difficult
First set everything to 0.
Giving you A= 1 , B= 1 and C= -5
Then input everything into the quadratic formula and either solve by hand or use a calculator.
Note exact values are found by hand, decimals are found using a calculator.
Answer:
I found this over the internet and hope it helps:
A rectangle is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles. It follows form this that the opposite sides are parallel and of the same length. A square is a quadrilateral with all four angles right angles and all four sides of the same length.
Also note that a square is always a rectangle, but a rectangle is not always a square.
