Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1) Total votes = 260
2) option (a) CANNOT be used to answer this question
================================================
Step-by-step explanation:
Part (A)
let all the votes = x
Violet received 156 votes which equal to 60% of all the votes
∴ 156 = 60% of x
60% = 60/100 = 0.6
∴156 = 0.6 x ⇒ x = 156/0.6 = 260 votes
Part (B) :
options (b), (c) and (d) can be used to answer this question because they will give the same result of part (A)
<u>While option (a) CANNOT be used to answer this question.</u>
Check the following
a. 0.6 times 156 = x ⇒ x = 93.6
b. 156 = 0.6x ⇒ x = 260
c. 156/0.6 = x ⇒ x = 260
d. 156/x = 60/100 ⇒ x = 260
Answer:
Intersecting but not perpendicular
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you forgot to add the = between y+5 and 2(1)
Since there is a opposite single variable in either equation the lines will intersect but not be perpendicular
Answer:
B. Negative two-fifths (-2/5)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Change the second number into a fraction if it isn't already.
2. Find the reciprocal of the divisor, or second fraction.
3. Multiply the numerators together.
4. Multiply the denominators together.
5. Simplify the answer if possible.
6. Determine if the answer is positive or negative using the sign rules.
Show your work:
-4/5 divided by 2/1
-4/5 divided 1/2
-4 * 1 = -4
5 * 2 = 10
Simplify:
-4/10 = -2/5
