Riverside Elementary School is holding a school-wide election to choose a school color. 5/8 of the voters were for blue 5/9 of t

padilas [110]

Answer:

There were 180 voters for blue color.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of voters be 'x'.

Given:

Number of Voters for blue color = $\frac{5}{8}x$

Number of Voters for green color = $\frac{5}{9}(x-\frac58x)=\frac59x(1-\frac58)$

Now we will use LCM to make the denominator common we get;

Number of Voters for green color = $\frac59x(\frac88-\frac58)=\frac59x(\frac{8-5}{9})=\frac59x(\frac38)=\frac{15x}{72}$

Number of Voters for red color = 48

We need to find the number of voters for blue color.

Solution:

Now we can say that;

total number of voters is equal to sum of Number of Voters for blue color, Number of Voters for green color and Number of Voters for red color.

framing in equation form we get;

$x=\frac58x+\frac{15x}{72}+48$

Combining like terms we get;

$x-\frac58x-\frac{15x}{72} = 48$

Now we will make denominators common using LCM we get;

$\frac{72x}{72}-\frac{5x\times9}{8\times9}-\frac{15x\times1}{72\times 1} = 48\\\\\frac{72x}{72}-\frac{45x}{72}-\frac{15x}{72} = 48$

Now denominators are common so we will solve the numerators we get;

$\frac{72x-45x-15x}{72}=48\\\\\frac{12x}{72}=48\\\\\frac{x}{6}=48$

Now multiplying both side by 6 we get;

$\frac{1}{6}x\times6=48\times6\\\\x = 288$

Number of voters for blue color = $\frac{5}{8}x=\frac{5}{8}\times 288= 180$

Hence There were 180 voters for blue color.

A scenario in which the optimal objective function contour line coincides with one of the binding constraint lines on the bounda

tangare [24]

Answer: Alternative optimal

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternative optimal solution means that

there are several optimal solutions that can be used to get identical objective function value.

Therefore, a scenario whereby the optimal objective function contour line coincides with one of the binding constraint lines on the boundary of the feasible region will lead to alternative optimal solution.
