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.

What are the coordinates of the intersection of the diagonals of parallelogram LMNO, with vertices L(0,-3), M(-2,1), N(1,5), O(3
ArbitrLikvidat [17]
ANSWER

\boxed {( \frac{1}{2} , 1)}

EXPLANATION

The given parallelogram has vertices,

L(0,-3), M(-2,1), N(1,5), O(3,1).

The diagonals of the parallelogram bisect each other.

From the diagram, we can see that, the diagonals have coordinates L(0,-3),N(1,5)

and

M(-2,1),O(3,1).

The midpoint of any of the diagonals will give us the coordinates of intersection of the diagonals.

Recall the midpoint formula,

(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_2+y_1}{2})

Using L(0,-3),N(1,5) gives,

(\frac{0+1}{2}, \frac{ - 3+5}{2})

(\frac{1}{2}, \frac{ 2}{2})

(\frac{1}{2}, 1)

Or we could have also used,M(-2,1),O(3,1) to get,

(\frac{-2+3}{2}, \frac{ 1+1}{2})

(\frac{ 1}{2}, \frac{ 2}{2})

(\frac{ 1}{2}, 1)

The correct answer is C

If g(x) = 4x2 - 16 were shifted 9 units to the right and 1 down, what would the new equation be? A. h(x) = 4(x + 9)2 – 17
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you move down 1 unit, you simply subtract 9 units from the given equation.

g(x) = 4x^2 - 16 - 1

g(x) = 4x^2 - 17

Shifting right is a little bit tricky. To shift right, you have to do the opposite of what you would do on the number line. The x has to become x - 9 because the x value (you will learn later) is part of a distance and distances always subtract one from the other.

The wrong way to do it is in answer A.

B is the correct answer

h(x) = 4(x - 9)^2 - 17
