This equation is also equal to 3/4x - 2/3 + 5/6 + 2x since subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive in the long run. First, simplify the variables to get 2 3/4x - 2/3 + 5/6. -2/3 is also equal to -4/6, so -4/6 + 5/6 is 1/6. The simplified version of this expression is 2 3/4x + 1/6. Hope this helps!
To start out, notice that you want the percent of voters that chose candidate A,
not the percent of the class that chose candidate A.
Your fraction should be "number that chose candidate A" out of "number of voters," which is the same thing as saying: "number that chose candidate A" divided by "number of voters"1) The numerator of the fraction should be the number of votes for candidate A, which is 11.
2) The denominator of the fraction should be the number of voters. You're told that "t<span>here were 11 votes for Candidate A and 15 votes for Candidate B," so there are:
</span>

3) Finally put parts 1 and 2 together into a fraction and multiply by 100 to get your percent. That is your final answer:

Answer:
y = -5/3 x + 40
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form is y = ax + b, where a is the slope and b is the y intercept.
So immediately you can see that b must be 40, since the line crosses the y axis at 40.
The slope can be calculated by finding two "nice" points on the line that are also grid lines.
How about (0,40) and (6, 30).
Then, calculate the slope by dividing the y difference by the x difference:
(30-40)/(6-0) = -10/6 = -5/3
So C must be the answer.
