Number of votes won by A = p
Number of votes won by B = 35

Number of votes won by B are 125% of the number of votes won by A. So we can write that 35 is 125% of p. In equation form we can translate it as:

35 = 125% of p 
35 = 1.25 x p 
p = 35/1.25
p = 28

So the number of votes won be A are 28.

At a particular restaurant each mozzarella stick has 90 cal in each pizza roll has 80 cal. A combination meal with the mozzarell
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The meal consist 11 mozzarella sticks and 6 pizza rolls.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Calories in mozzarella stick = 90

Calories in pizza roll = 80

Let x be the number of a mozzarella stick and y be the number of pizza rolls.

Total calories in meal = 1470

Thus, we can write the equation:

90x + 80y = 1470

There are five more mozzarella sticks than pizza roll.

Thus, we can write the equation:

x = y + 5\\x-y = 5

Solving the two equations, we get,

90x+80y+80x-80y = 1470 + 400\\170x = 1870\\x = 11\\y = 11-5 = 6

Thus, the meal consist 11 mozzarella sticks and 6 pizza rolls.

The density of iron is 7.8 g/cm3 . An iron beam has a volume of 10,504 cm³.
myrzilka [38]
The formula to find density is Mass/Volume

We have
Density = 7.8 \frac{g}{cm^{3}}
Volume = 10504  cm^{3}

Hence
Mass = 7.8×10504 = 81931.2 gram

HELP PLEASE!!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Nadusha1986 [10]
The equation looks like this \frac{ x^{2} }{16} + \frac{ y^{2} }{25} =1.  In an ellipse, a is always the bigger value, so a^2 = 25.  This bigger value also tells us which axis is the major one.  Sine the bigger value a is under the y^2 of the equation, the major axis is the y-axis.  This is a vertical ellipse.  The center is always found within a set of parenthesis that exist with the x^2 and the y^2.  Since there are no parenthesis with either, there is no side to side movement, nor is there any up or down movement.  So the center doesn't move from the origin (0, 0).  The vertex is also along the major axis, and if a^2 is 25, then a = 5, so the vertices go up 5 from the center and down 5 from the center.  Vertices are (0, 5) and (0, -5).  The foci follow the formula c^{2}= a^{2}- b^{2}.  c is the distance that the foci are from the center.  c^{2}=25-16 and c = 3.  The foci also lie on the major axis, so the coordinates for the foci are (0, 3) and (0, -3).  There you go!

Amy has 12 pairs of white socks, 2 pairs of gray socks, and 6 pairs of black socks in her drawer. if she takes two pairs without
KIM [24]
HI!
First of all, there are total 12 + 2 + 6 = 20 pairs of socks.
Probability of getting a pair of white socks the first time is 12/20.
Probability of getting a pair of gray socks without replacement, if first one was white, is 2/19
Therefore the probability t<span>hat she will take a white pair and gray pair</span> without replacement is 6/95 (I multiplied the two probabilities)
Let me know if there are any other questions!
