3 0

Answer:

Candidate receives 2250 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of votes A : B = 75 : 25  = 3 : 1

3 : 1 = x : 750

Product of means = Product of extremes

1 *x = 3*750

  x = 3 *750

     = 2250

There are two numbers whose sum is 53. Three times the smaller number is equal to 19 more than the larger number. What are the n

18 and 35. The numbers whose sum 53 are 18 and 35.

The key to solve this problem is using a system of equations.

There are two numbers whose sum is 53. This number can be represented as x and y. So:

x + y = 53

Three times the smaller number is equal to 19 more than the larger. Let's set x as the smaller number and y the larger number. So:

3x = 19 + y

Clear y in both equations and let's use the equalization method to solve for x:

y = 53 - x and y = 3x - 19

Then,

53 - x = 3x - 19

53 + 19 = 3x + x ---------> 3x + x = 53 + 19 -------> 4x = 72

x = 72/4 = 18

To find y, let's substitute x = 18 in the equation x + y = 53

18 + y = 53 --------> y = 53 - 18

y = 35

Answer:

  • <u>The odds are 2 : 23, or about 0.09 :  1 (0.09 to 1).</u>

Explanation:

The <em>odds </em>of an event is the ratio of occurrence to non-occurrence of the event.

When you know the <em>probability</em> of an event, then you can calculate the odds by dividing the probability of occurence by the probability of non-occurrence.

Calling p the probability that an event will happen, 1 - p is the probability that it will not happen and the odds will be:

  • Odds = p / ( 1 - p)

You have p = 8% = 0.08, and 1 - p = 1 -0.08 = 0.92.

Therefore:

  • Odds = 0.08 / 0.92 = 8 : 92 = 2 : 23 ≈ 0.09 : 1 (0.09 to 1)
