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.

To solve this problem, we will subtract the volume of the cylinder from the volume of the rectangular prism.

The volume of a cylinder is: pi*r^2*h
Substitute 2 in for r and 6 in for h. If the diameter is 4, then the radius is 2.
pi*2^2*6
pi*4*6
pi*24
=75.4 ft^2

The volume of the rectangular prism is: l*w*h.
Substitute 6 in for l, w and h, since all edges are equal.
6*6*6
36*6
=216 ft^2

Subtract 75.4 from 216
216-75.4=140.6

There is 140.6 cubic feet of concrete left in the block.

The following angles are supplementary to each other.
Elan Coil [88]

The value of x in given angles is 36°

<h3>What are supplementary angles?</h3>

When the sum of two angles is 180°, then they are said to be supplements of each other.

Given are two angles which are supplements of each other,

Then according to definition of supplementary angles,

m∠A+m∠B = 180°

(2x − 27)°+(3x + 27)° = 180°

2x+3x = 180°

5x = 180°

x = 180°/5

x =  36°

Hence, The value of x in given angles is 36°
