Answer:

The total  number of votes was 7,007

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of yes votes

y -----> the number of no votes

we know that

\frac{x}{y} =\frac{6}{5}

isolate variable y

y=\frac{5}{6}x -----> equation A

x=3,822 -----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

y=\frac{5}{6}(3,822)=3,185

therefore

To find out the total number of votes sum the number of yes votes plus the number of no votes

3,822+3,185=7,007

A line passes through the points (0, -2) and (0, 5). Is it possible to write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form? ju
Feliz [49]
Consider what the slope of this line would be. Slope is rise/run; this line rises 7 (5 - (-2)) and runs 0 (0 - 0). This means that the slope would be 7/0. Dividing by zero is not possible, therefore, it cannot be written in slope-intercept form.
