Using ratio and proportion, we can solve this problem.
Take the ratio and proportion to both sides,  
87people will vote for other person/114 total people=x people/9918 total people
rearrange the equation to get the value of x
x= 7569
The answer is letter b.7569 people.

HELP PLEASE ITS DUE IN 10 MIN Use algebraic strategies to solve for x.
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

x = 4, x ≠ -1

Step-by-step explanation:

√3x + 4 = x

(√3x + 4)² = x² (Square both sides to get rid of the radical.)

3x + 4 = x²

0 = x² - 3x - 4 (Set everything to 0 by moving everything to one side.)

0 = (x - 4)(x + 1) (Factor.)

x = 4   x = -1

Now we need to check for extraneous solutions:

√3(4) + 4 = 4

√12 + 4 = 4

√16 = 4

4 = 4

√3(-1) + 4 = -1

√-3 +4 = -1

√1 = -1

1 ≠ -1

-1 is an extraneous solution.

find the length of the side of square with an area of 121 in2. A.484 in, B.30.25 in, C.11 in, D.6.5 in
marishachu [46]
For a square, the area is the square of the side length (length x width = area, but in a square length = width). That means the side length is the square root of the area.

In this case the side length is the square root of 121, which is 11. Answer is C.

Total           36                 33                   35                 104

Above is a partial sum chart that will help us in our quest.

P(Grade 9 | opposed)
The probability of Grade 9, given opposed, is the portion of opposed students that are in grade 9. 
Total number opposed: 33
Number opposed in Grade 9: 2
P(Grade 9 | opposed) = 2 / 33 = 0.06

P(opposed | Grade 9)
Total Number Grade 9: 14
Number opposed in Grade 9: 2
P(opposed | Grade 9) = 2 / 14 = 0.14
