The given triangle UVW is a right angle triangle. This is because one of its angles is 90 degrees. The sum of the two other angles is 180. To determine Cos U, we will apply trigonometric ratio.

Cos U = adjacent side/ hypotenuse.

Looking at the triangle with C as the reference angle,

Adjacent side = 12

Hypotenuse( always the longest side of the triangle) = 13

Therefore,

Cos U = 12/13

Surveys indicate that two-thirds of all voters in Ward 5 plan on choosing Spike Jones for commissioner. If there are 500 voters

olya-2409 [2.1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

333 people of ward 5 are going to be voting for Spike Jones.

<u>Solution:</u>

We have been given that two-thirds of all voters in Ward 5 plan on choosing Spike Jones for commissioner.

There are 500 voters in Ward 5.

Since 2/3 of all voters in Ward 5 are voting for Spike Jones the remaining 1/3 will not be voting for him.

To find out how many people in ward 5 are exactly voting for Spike Jones. We need to calculate how much is two thirds of 500 is.

This is done as follows:

$\begin{array}{l}{\frac{2}{3} \times 500} \\\\ {=\frac{1000}{3}} \\\\ {=333.334}\end{array}$

Since people cannot be denoted in decimal points we have to round it off to a whole number. That’s is 333.

Therefore 333 people of ward 5 are going to be voting for Spike Jones.
