Answer:

Option a

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that all of the seniors and none of the freshmen voted for it.

Some of the juniors and some of the sophomores voted for the proposal and some voted against it.

If the proposal was to be adopted then a simple of majority of votes should have been cast.

Since all seniors voted for it, and no freshmen number of freshmen has to be less than seniors then only majority would have voted.

Regarding juniors and sophomores we assume some voted and some against thus approximately nullifying their votes.

So the correct option would be

a. There are more seniors than freshmen on the council.

Option b wrong since only some voted for it.

C is wrong because actual seniors were not given.

D is wrong because while seniors voted for sophomores voted against.

e is wrong since sophomores and freshmen nullified each other

An online furniture store sells chairs for $200 each and tables for 166o ach. Every
ladessa [460]

Answer:

15 tables

Step-by-step explanation:

Chairs = $200

Tables = $600

Maximum items = 39

Minimum sales = $13,000

If 20 chairs are sold, revenue is $4,000. At least $9,000 in additional revenue is required. To earn $9,000, a minimum of 15 tables would need to be sold, which is fine since a maximum of 19 tables is permitted to be sold.

The sum of the measures of a pair of alternate angles of two parallel lines is 210°. What are the measures of these two angles?
aniked [119]
The answer is 105 and 105 because they did not tell you that one had more than the other, so it's equal. Plus, it could not be 210 or over or 0 or less. It was spilt up equally between both alternate angles, and the lines are parallel, so the angles are equal. So just do 210/2 and get what one of the angles would be. Great question!
