Answer:

195

Step-by-step explanation:

Let wining name have, x votes

1st = x

2nd = x - 53

3rd = x - 79

4th = x - 105

x + (x - 53) + (x - 79) + (x - 105) = 963

x + x - 53 + x - 79 + x - 105 = 963

4x - 237 = 963

4x = 963 + 237

4x = 1200

x = 1200 / 4

x = 300

4th = x - 105

x - 105 = 300 - 105 = 195

Can someone show me how to even start with 1 and 2? ​
diamong [38]

All you need to know is that

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to\infty}a^x=\begin{cases} \infty \text{ if } a>1\\1 \text{ if } a=1\\0 \text{ if } 0\leq a

So, the first function grows exponentially and the second decays exponentially. The rate of growth/decay are the bases of the exponentials, which means 1.08 and 0.205

If 2/3 ton of gravel covers 3/4 of a driveway, how many tons of gravel are required to cover the entire driveway? (1 point) Ques
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

If 2/3 ton of gravel covers 3/4 of a driveway, you need to divide 2/3 divided by 3 to find how much is needed for 1/4 of the driveway. So first step:

1. 2/3 divided by 3 = 2/3 * 1/3. So 2/9.

2. Add 2/3 plus 2/9= 8/9 ton of gravel to cover the whole driveway.

Factor 6x4 – 5x2 + 12x2 – 10 by grouping. What is the resulting expression?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

(6x² - 5)(x² + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6x^{4} - 5x² + 12x² - 10 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= x²(6x² - 5) + 2(6x² - 5) ← factor out (6x² - 5) from each term

= (6x² - 5)(x² + 2)
