The formula would be set up as ratios (or fractions). The first ratio is 6:5, which in total is 11. There were 6 yes out of 11, so the fraction = 6/11.

The second fraction has a total of 5918, however you do not know the amount of yes votes, so the variable placeholder will be called "x".

The final formula would be:
6/11 = x/5918

You do cross multiplication and you get:
11x = 35508. You divide both sides, and you get x = 3228.

Because x is the placeholder for the amount of yes votes, and x = 3228, the amount of yes votes is 3228

X² + y² = 8

ohaa [14]

Answer:

$(2,2)~ \text{and}~ (-2,-2)$

Step by step explanation:

$x^2 +y^2 =8~~~~~~...(i)\\\\x-y=0~~~~~~~~~...(ii)\\\\\text{From (ii):}\\\\x-y = 0 \implies x = y\\\\\text{Substitute x = y in eq (i):}\\\\~~~~~~y^2 +y^2 =8\\\\\implies 2y^2 = 8\\ \\\implies y^2 = \dfrac 82\\\\\implies y^2 = 4\\\\\implies y = \pm\sqrt 4\\\\\implies y = \pm 2\\\\\text{Substitute y = x in equation (i):}\\ \\~~~~~~x^2 +x^2 = 8\\ \\\implies 2x^2 = 8\\\\\implies x^2 = \dfrac 82\\\\\implies x^2 = 4\\\\\implies x = \pm\sqrt 4\\\\\implies x = \pm2\\\\$

$\text{Hence,}~ (x,y) = (\pm2, \pm 2)$
