Option B

7569 number of people are going to vote for the other candidate

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that candidate took a phone poll of 110 people

Of the 110 people polled, 87 said they would vote for the other person

There are 9570 people in the district

You can set up this problem like a proportion

Let "x" be the number of people who would vote for the other candidate

\frac{87}{110} = \frac{x}{9570}

To solve proportions, you cross-multiply. This means you multiply the numerator by the other denominator, and the denominator by the other numerator

87 \times 9570 = 110 \times x

832590 = 110x

x = 7569

Thus 7569 number of people are going to vote for the other candidate

Find the first five terms of the sequence given the following recursive formula:
forsale [732]

Answer:

The first five terms are;

-3,-7,11,-29,69

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive definition of the sequence is

a_1=-3,, a_2=-7 and a_n=a_{n-2}-2a_{n-1}.

When n=3, we obtain;

a_3=a_{3-2}-2a_{3-1}.

\implies a_3=a_{1}-2a_{2}.

\implies a_3=-3-2(-7).

\implies a_3=11.

When n=4

\implies a_4=a_{2}-2a_{3}.

\implies a_4=-7-2(11)=-29.

When n=5

\implies a_5=a_{3}-2a_{4}.

\implies a_4=11-2(-29)=69.

Therefore the first five terms are;

-3,-7,11,-29,69

Find the x-value for point C such that AC and BC from a 2:3 ratio.
Galina-37 [17]

Given:

Point C divides AB such that AC:BC=2:3.

To find:

The x-value for point C.

Solution:

Section formula: If a point divide a line segment in m:n, then

Point=\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)

Form the given graph it is clear that the endpoints of the line segment AB are A(-3,5) and B(3,0).

Point C divides AB such that AC:BC=2:3. Using section formula, the coordinates of point C are

C=\left(\dfrac{2(3)+3(-3)}{2+3},\dfrac{2(0)+3(5)}{2+3}\right)

C=\left(\dfrac{6-9}{5},\dfrac{0+15}{5}\right)

C=\left(\dfrac{-3}{5},\dfrac{15}{5}\right)

C=\left(-0.6,3\right)

The x-value of C is -0.6.

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Examine the diagram of circle V, where two chords, JK and LM, are equidistant from the center. If JK=4x+37, and LM=5(x+5), what
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If the two chords are equidistant from the center of the circle, then the chords must be congruent.

so

JK=LM

substitute the given values

4x+37=5(x+5)

solve for x

5x-4x=37-25\\x=12
