\bf \begin{array}{ccll} yes&no\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 5&3\\ y&2829 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{5}{y}=\cfrac{3}{2829}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 2829}{3}=y\implies 4715=y \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{total number of votes}}{yes+no}\implies 4715+2829\implies 7544

How to graph 9x+15y=45
leonid [27]
First you should rearrange to get it in the form y = mx + c, and you do this by subtracting the 9x from both sides and dividing by 15, which gives you:
y = (-9/15)x + 3

Now you know the y-intercept is 3, so you can mark that on as a point.
Then, to graph the gradient of -9/15, you go along 15 spaces to the right and 9 spaces down, or 15 to the left and 9 spaces up, and you repeat this until you run out of room. Then you just join the dots

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)
