Answer:

There were 2747 yes votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using proportions.

The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 5 to 3 .

This means that for each 5 + 3 = 8 votes, 5 were yes and 3 were no.

If there were 4395 total votes, how many yes votes were there?

For each 8 votes, we have 5 yes. How many yes votes were there in 4395 votes?

5 yes - 8 votes

x yes - 4395 votes

8x = 4395*5

x = 4395*5/8

x = 2747

There were 2747 yes votes.

Help me pls, BRAINEST AWARD
Natali [406]

Answer:

x = 3.7

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying sine ratio for the given angle B,

sin(39°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

sin(39°) = \frac{AD}{AB}

0.6293 = \frac{AD}{7}

AD = 4.41

By applying tangent ratio for the given angle C,

tan(50°) = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}

1.19 = \frac{AD}{x}

1.19 = \frac{4.41}{x}

x = 3.7

MAKE YOU THE BRAINLIEST EASY QUESTION Show the formula for finding the area of a triangle. Then find the area of a right triangl
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Formula to find the area of a triangle is 1/2(bxh). The area of the right triangle is 28.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem you would plug in the base and height into the formula and follow the order of operations (P.E.M.D.A.S). So the equation would then read 1/2(5x11.2). Once you solve inside the parenthesis, the equation then reads, 1/2(56). Then you solve what half of 56 is, which is 28.


I hoped this helped you!
