Answer:
1 4/35
Step-by-step explanation:
All I did was do 5/7 + 2/5.
First let's find how much is 15% of 8500 voters.
To do that, we can multiply 15 by 8500 and then divide by 100.
Work: 15 x 8500 = 127500
127500/100 = 1275
Therefore 15 percent of 8500 is 1275.
Then, we subtract 1275 from 8500 to find the amount of people who did vote.
8500 - 1275 = 7,225
Thus, 7,225 people voted while 1,275 people did not.
Answer:
x = 4, x ≠ -1
Step-by-step explanation:
√3x + 4 = x
(√3x + 4)² = x² (Square both sides to get rid of the radical.)
3x + 4 = x²
0 = x² - 3x - 4 (Set everything to 0 by moving everything to one side.)
0 = (x - 4)(x + 1) (Factor.)
x = 4 x = -1
Now we need to check for extraneous solutions:
√3(4) + 4 = 4
√12 + 4 = 4
√16 = 4
4 = 4
√3(-1) + 4 = -1
√-3 +4 = -1
√1 = -1
1 ≠ -1
-1 is an extraneous solution.
Answer: Multiplying and Dividing Decimals by Powers of 10
When you divide a decimal by a power of 10, simply move the decimal place to the left as many places as there are 0s in the power of 10.
Answer:
320 milligrams of sodium
Step-by-step explanation:
Create a proportion where x is the milligrams of sodium a 20 ounce bottle has:
= 
Cross multiply and solve for x
1920 = 6x
320 = x
So, a 20 ounce bottle will have 320 milligrams of sodium
