1/3 of 12,000 ballots were thrown out.
1/3 * 12,000 = 12,000/3 = 4,000
4,000 ballots were thrown out.
12,000 - 4,000 = 8,000
There were 8,000 ballots left.
1/4 of 8,000 ballots are for candidate A.
1/4 * 8,000 = 8,000/4 = 2,000
Candidate A received 2,000 votes.
8,000 - 2,000 = 6,000
Candidate B received 6,000 votes.
The answer is -1.5+(-2.75)=-4.25. This equation is the same as the result of -1.5 -2.75.
For
to be continuous at
, we need to have
Note that
means that
, but that
is *approaching* 5. We're told that for
, we have
We can write
and the limit would be
and so
is discontinuous.
Answer:
x = 3 ±
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 6x - 4 = 0 ( add 4 to both sides )
x² - 6x = 4
To complete the square
add ( half the coefficient of the x- term)² to both sides
x² + 2(- 3)x + 9 = 4 + 9
(x - 3)² = 13 ( take square root of both sides )
x - 3 = ± ( add 3 to both sides )
x = 3 ±
