1)

neverminding how many grams or liters...or whatever unit for now
we know one bag of grass covered 1/6 of the lawn, "a whole" or 1, is 6/6
if 1 bag covers 1/6, to cover 6/6 is just 1/6 +1/6 +1/6 +1/6 +1/6 +1/6 , or 6 bags

2)

one can was enough for 1/4 of the sprayer, a full sprayer is 1 whole or 4/4, so 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4  or 4 cans

3)

one potato gives enough for 1/3 for a lighbulb, again, 1 whole is 3/3, so 1/3 +1/3 +1/3 , so 3 potatoes

lakkis [162]

Answer:

a) 6,880

b) 4,059

c) Check Explanation

The number of expected votes for candidate A increases only in the first 3 weeks of mudslinging. The rate of weekly increase in those 3 weeks, is provided in the explanation. The number changes weekly for those 3 weeks with an average increase of 101 new votes per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. If the election were held today, how many people would vote?

b. How many of those would vote for candidate A?

c. How rapidly is the number of votes that candidate A will receive increasing at the moment?

There are 16,000 registered voters, 43% of whom are planning to vote, with 59% planning to vote for candidate A.

a) Number of registered voters planning to vote = 43% × 16000 = 6880

b) Number of registered voters that will vote and vote for candidate A

= 59% of registered voters planning to vote

= 59% × 6880 = 4059.2 ≈ 4059 people

c) Polls show that the percentage of people who plan to vote is increasing by 5 percentage points per week, and the percentage who will vote for candidate A is declining by 4 percentage points per week.

Since, the 'moment' isn't specified, we will check how much the number is increasing for the first 4 weeks after the mudslinging by candidate B began

Normally, 43% of registered voters want to vote, but now it is increasing at a rate of 5% per week. So, the percentage of registered voters that want to vote is now

43% + 5x% (where x = number of weeks after the mudslinging by candidate B started)

And the percentage of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A is now (59% - 4x%)

After a week, percentage of registered voters that will vote = 48%

Number of registered voters that will vote = 48% × 16000 = 7680

percentage of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A = 55%

Number of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A = 55% × 7680 = 4224

Difference between the initial number of expected votes for candidate A between the beginning of the mudslinging and end of week 1

= 4224 - 4059 = 165

After week 2,

percentage of registered voters that will vote = 53%

Number of registered voters that will vote = 53% × 16000 = 8480

percentage of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A = 51%

Number of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A = 51% × 8480 = 4324.8 = 4325

Difference between the number of expected votes for candidate A between week 1 and week 2

= 4325 - 4224 = 101

After week 3,

percentage of registered voters that will vote = 58%

Number of registered voters that will vote = 58% × 16000 = 9280

percentage of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A = 47%

Number of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A = 47% × 9280 = 4361.6 = 4362

Difference between the number of expected votes for candidate A between week 2 and week 3

= 4362 - 4325 = 37

After week 4,

percentage of registered voters that will vote = 63%

Number of registered voters that will vote = 63% × 16000 = 10,080

percentage of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A = 43%

Number of voting, registered voters that want to vote for candidate A = 43% × 10080 = 4334

Difference between the number of expected votes for candidate A between week 3 and week 4

= 4334 - 4362 = -28

The number of expected votes for candidate A begins to decline after the 4th week of mudslinging.

So, the required 'moment' should be within the first 3 weeks of mudslinging. And the rate of increase weekly is provided above with an average increase of 101 new voters per week.

Hope this Helps!!!

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

On the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

Because all of the points on a circle are equidistant from the center, if a circle has a radius of 10 then all of the points are 10 units from the center. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, you know that the distance from (4,0) to (-2,8) is:

\sqrt{(4-(-2))^2+(8-0)^2}=\sqrt{6^2+8^2}=\sqrt{36+64}=\sqrt{100}=10, meaning that it is on the circle. Hope this helps!
