we want to in 85% of the total population

percent means parts out of 100 so 85% is 85/100

85% 'of' 15000 means 85/100 times 15000=12750 people who were over 40 and voted

Answer:

  (x, y) = (5, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  LP = x

  MP = 2y+3

  NP = y+3

  KP = 3x -8

  KP = MP, LP = NP

<u>Find</u>:

  x, y

<u>Solution</u>:

The given relations between the segment lengths let us write two equations:

  KP = MP

  3x -8 = 2y +3   ⇒   3x -2y -11 = 0   [eq1]

  LP = NP

  x = y +3   ⇒   x -y -3 = 0   [eq2]

__

Subtracting 3 times [eq2] from [eq1] gives ...

  (3x -2y -11) -3(x -y -3) = 0

  y -2 = 0 . . . . . . . . simplify

  y = 2 . . . . . . . . . . add 2

Substituting this value into [eq2] gives ...

  x = 2 + 3 = 5

The values of x and y are ...

  x = 5, y = 2

The women'schorus has 33members. How many quartetscan be formed? How many singers will be left over?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: 8 quartets can be formed.

1 singer will be left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

A quartet is a group of 4 members.

Given: The women'schorus has 33 members.

The number of quartets can be formed = (Total members) divided by (4)

= 33 ÷ 4

By solving 33 ÷ 4  we get 8 as quotient and remainder as 1 such that

33 = 4 x 8 +1

Hence, 8 quartets can be formed.

1 singer will be left over.

Bill spent $42 on fruit at the grocery store. He spent a total of $60 at the store. What percentage of the total did he
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total percentage of his $60 dollars that he spent on fruit, we simply take the amount of money spent on fruit divided by the total spent.

% spent on fruit = 42 / 60

% spent on fruit = 0.7

% spent on fruit = 70 %

Cheers.
