9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (i)  5/12

  (ii)  720

  (iii)  420

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) The fraction representing all votes is 12/12. If 7/12 were received by the winner, then the loser received 12/12 -7/12 = 5/12 of the total votes.

  The person who lost received 5/12 of the total votes.

__

(ii) The winner won by 7/12 -5/12 = 2/12 = 1/6 of all votes. So, the total number of votes is ...

  120 votes = 1/6(total votes)

  total votes = 6×120 votes = 720 votes

There were 720 registered voters.

__

(iii) The winner received ...

  (7/12)(720 votes) = 420 votes . . . received by the winner

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the top line is equal to the bottom, you make the equation -

x + x + 4 = x + 16

You subtract an x on both sides because there is one on each side -

x + 4 = 16

Then you subtract the 4 from both sides to get x by its self, which makes

x = 12

Draw a line representing the "rise" and a line representing the "run" of the line. State the slope of the line in simplest form.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Line of "rise": (0, 3) to (0, 0) ==> -3 units

Line of "run": (0, 0) to (1, 0) ==> 1 unit

Slope: rise/run ==> -3/1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is basically a ratio of changes in the y-value to changes in the x-value. What I mean by that is the slope shows how much the line goes up or down compared to how much the line goes left or right. In this case, the line goes right one unit for every 3 units the line goes down. Taking a look at the portion of the line in Quadrant 1 (top right quadrant), the line starts at (0, 3) and ends at (1, 0). I guess that's another way to figure out slope, too: line up the two coordinates (the leftmost one above the rightmost one), and add or subtract.

Like this:

    (0, 3)

<u>     (1,  0)     </u>

   +1   -3

Since the formula for slope is rise/run (y-difference/x-difference), the slope is therefore -3/+1, or simply -3/1. (You don't include plus signs.)
