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}} \\\\

Write the slope intercept form of the equation of the line through the given points and slope 1,1 and slope of -3/5
Maslowich

Slope is already given in the question so we only need to solve for the y-intercept.

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

-3/5 = -0.6

1 = -0.6(1) + b

1 = -0.6 + b

1 + 0.6 = -0.6 + b + 0.6

1.6 = b

Now, write in slope-intercept form.

y = -3/5x - 1.6

A rectangular swimming pool measures 7.5 m by 4.5 m. It is completely surrounded by a fence parallel to each edge of the pool an
Illusion [34]

The total length of the fence is 48 m if the rectangular swimming pool measures 7.5 m by 4.5 m.

<h3>What is rectangle?</h3>

It is defined as the two-dimensional geometry in which the angle between the adjacent sides are 90 degree. It is a type of quadrilateral.

It is defined as the area occupied by the rectangle in two-dimensional planner geometry.

The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the following formula:

Rectangle area = length x width

It is given that:

A rectangular swimming pool measures 7.5 m by 4.5 m.

It is completely surrounded by a fence parallel to each edge of the pool and at a distance of 3 m from each edge of the pool.

The total length of the fence = 2(7.5+3×2 + 4.5+3×2)

The total length of the fence = 2(7.5+6 + 4.5+6)

The total length of the fence = 2(24)

The total length of the fence = 48 m

Thus, the total length of the fence is 48 m if the rectangular swimming pool measures 7.5 m by 4.5 m.
