1000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the share of votes obtained by the parties A, B and C be x, 2x and 4x respectively.

According to the given information:

No of votes obtained by C = 1500 + No of votes obtained by A

\therefore 4x = 150. + x \\\\\therefore 4x - x = 1500\\\\\therefore 3x = 1500\\\\\therefore x = \frac{1500}{3} \\\\\therefore x = 500\\\\\because Votes \:obtained\: by \:B = 2x \\\\\therefore Votes \:obtained\: by \:B = 2\times 500\\\\\purple {\bold {\therefore Votes \:obtained\: by \:B = 1000}} \\\\

Factor Completely<br><br> 2x²-4x+6
vagabundo [1.1K]


okay well usually what I would tell you would be to use the ABC method. you would multiply A (2) by C (6) to get twelve. so you need two numbers that multiply to twelve and add to -4 (the B value). but there are no numbers that fit this description so you have to use the GCF method instead

for this method you must find the GCF for all three numbers which in this case is 2.        2(x^2-2x+3) all these numbers are now prime so this is the factored form
