There are a number of possible combinations for this open-ended question, so here's an example question and answer, in which the two are non-related:
James' car is going at 45 miles per hour, and that is 42% of his maximum speed. How much slower does James have to go to be 27% of his maximum speed?
Amy's car used to be able to go at 45 miles per hour as 42% of her maximum speed, but due to the new upgrade, 45 miles per hour is now only 27% of her maximum speed.
Let x equal miles traveled<span>2.25+0.75(x-1/2)/(1/8)=12
2.25+.75(x-1/2)*8=12
2.25+6(x-1/2)=12
2.25+6x-3=12
6x-.75=12
6x=12.75n
x=12.75/6=2.125 or 2+1/8 miles </span>
Winners in primary elections in TX are determined by majority vote. If no candidate receives 50% of the vote, then the top 2 candidates proceed to a run-off election.
So in the above problem, since nobody received the majority vote of 50%, the candidate X and candidate Y are going to proceed to a run-off election to determine the democratic candidate for governor
