A newspaper article reports the results of an election between two candidates. The article says that Smith received 60% of the v

otes and that Murphy received 15 of the votes. A reader writes in to complain that the article cannot be accurate. What reason might the reader have to say this?

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, smith receives 60% of the vote this means murphy must receive 40% of the vote. Therefore 15 = 40% of the total vote.

Thus total vote = 37.5, which is kind of absurd. As total vote count must be an integer. Moreover, the report must be consistent with the result, which does not seem in this case.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

FV = P (1 + r/m)^mn

FV = Future value  

P = Present value  

R = interest rate  

N = number of years

m = number of compounding

a. 6000x (1 + 0.04/12)^24 = 6498.86

b. . 6000x (1 + 0.03/12)^36 =6564.31

c. . 6000x (1 + 0.01/12)^48 = 6244.76

d. . 6000x (1 + 0.05/12)^60 =6630.47

an angle measures 27.4 more than the measure of its complementary angle what is the measure of each angle
Arisa [49]

Hello!

<h2>31.3° and 58.7°</h2><h2></h2>

To solve, we can set up an algebraic expression.

Complementary angles add up to 90°, and in this instance, one angle is 27.4° more than the other. Therefore:

∠1 = x

∠2 = x + 27.4°

∠1 + ∠2 = 90°

x + (x + 27.4°) = 90°

Combine like terms:

2x + 27.4° = 90°

Subtract 27.4 from both sides:

2x = 62.6°

Divide both sides by 2:

x = 31.3°

Therefore, one of the angles is 31.3°. Solve for the measure of the other angle:

(31.3°) + 27.4° = 58.7°
