Step-by-step explanation:

Given

North Carolina has 12 fewer electoral votes than Florida

The total number of votes is 64

Suppose Florida receives x votes

thus, votes received by North Carolina is y

So, we can write

\Rightarrow x-y=12\quad \ldots(i)

\Rightarrow x+y=64\quad \ldots(ii)

Solving the above equations we get

x=38,y=26

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{2x+1}{x+4} = \frac{40}{25} = \frac{8}{5} ( cross-  multiply )

5(2x + 1) = 8(x + 4) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides )

10x + 5 = 8x + 32 ( subtract 8x from both sides )

2x + 5 = 32 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

2x = 27 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 13.5 → d

Paraphin [41]
Answer: The correct answer is Choice D.

This is an example of an exponential equation. They are in the form of y=ab^x, where a is the starting value, b is the rate and x is the number of years.

Our data starts at 2500 and increases by 5%, or 100% + 5% = 1.05.

If you put them together, you have the equation y = 2500(1.05)^x, Choice D.

A cannon ball is launched at 6 feet per second from the top of a platform 12 feet above the ground.
AleksAgata [21]
A.) y = ut - 1/2gt^2 + 12
y = 6t - 1/2(9.8)t^2 + 12
y = 6t - 4.9t^2 + 12

b.) The y-intercept is 12

c.) The y-intercept represent the height of the ball at time t = 0

d.) At the time the ball reaches the ground, y = 0
-4.9t^2 + 6t + 12 = 0
t = 2.29 seconds
Therefore, it took the ball 2.29 seconds to reach the ground.

Murljashka [212]
A=3,500×(1+0.0485÷4)^(4×11)
A=5,947.99

6000=3500(1+0.0485/4)^4t
Solve for t to know the time needed to reach 6000
Time=11.2
So the time needed is 11 years and 2 months
