Answer:

The range of people who voted for other person = 7266 to 7872

Step-by-step explanation:

A phone survey has a margin error of +/– 4%. The range of number of people who will vote for the other candidate if 87 of 114 people said they would vote for the other person.

We get the percentage from this ,

Percentage = \frac{87}{114} \times 100 = 76.3 %

Border percentages = 72.3 and 80.3% (Since error = 4%)

We have already taken vote of 114 people so remaining = 9804

Lower end = 0.723 \times 9804 =  7266

Upper end = 0.803\times 9804 = 7872

Hence the range = 7266 to 7872

Write an equation of the line that passes through (2,−5) and is parallel to the line 2y=3x+10
LenaWriter [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide two on both sides to get rid of it and the make the equation in the form y = mx + c

\frac{2}{2} y = \frac{3}{2} x +  \frac{10}{2}

y = 3/2x + 5

since both lines are parallel they must have the same gradient which is 3/2

y = 3/2x + c

All you have to do now is to replace x and y with (2, -5) to find c

x = 2

y = -5

-5 = 3/2 × 2 + c

-5 = 3 + c

c = -5-3

c = -8

y  = \frac{3}{2} x  - 8

Coffee café mix 90 pounds of coffee that cost six dollars per pound the types of coffee used to make this makes you cost seven d
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

y =  60

Step-by-step explanation:

From the  information we get:

x  quantity of 4 dollars  coffee used in the mix

y  quantity of 7 dollars  coffee used in the mix

For the quantity of coffee to be sold a 7 $/pound  ( 90 pounds)

Then  6*90  =  540  $

Therefore

x  +  y  =  90     and

4*x  +  7*y  =  540

A two equations system we solve for x and y

y =  90  -  x

4*x  +  7* ( 90  -  x ) = 540

4*x  +  630 - 7*x  =  540

- 3*x  =  - 90

x = 30 pounds   and

y  =  90  -  30

y  =  60

We should use  60 pounds of the seven $ coffee

A person has to walk 100 m to go from position X in the north of east direction to the position B and then to the west of Y to r
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

The distance between X and Y is 68m

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the diagram attached:

A person starts from X, goes to Y, and then finally goes to Z, covering a total of 100m, where Z is located 60m in north of X.

We have to find distance XY.

Let the distance XY be x

Total distance covered by the person = XY + YZ

We know that total distance covered is 100m, so

100m = x + YZ

YZ = (100 - x)m

See the diagram, XZY forms a right angled triangle such that:

Hypotenuse = XY = x

Base = XZ = 60m

Perpendicular = YZ = (100-x)m

Using Pythagoras theorem

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Perpendicular²

x² = (60)² + (100-x)²

Solve the equation for x, we get:

x = 68m
