Answer:
The total number of voters = 10725
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of votes cast was 5 + 8
The no votes ratio is 8/ 13
This question is a a proportion question.
A proportion question is 2 ratios equal to other. Three of the parts of the ratios are known and you are asked to find the fourth. In this question the no votes are known to be 8 and the total is 13.
The total no votes = 6600. So the three parts are known are
- no vote ratio = 8
- No vote number =6600
- total vote ratio part = 13
- You are asked to find the total number of voters.
8/13 = 6600/x Cross multiply
8x = 13*6600 Combine the right.
8x = 85800 Divide by 8
8x/8 = 85800/8
x = 10725
The total number of voters = 10725
Answer:
sorry for wasting your time
need pionts
X^2+10x+16=0
First, you find factors of 16.
1 x 16
2 x 8
4 x 4
Next, you find which of the factor pairs adds up to 10 (from the 10x). In this case, 2 x 8 because 2 times 8 is 16 and 2 plus 8 is 10.
Then, the equation will be written out as: (x+2) (x+8). Take those two equations and set them equal to 0, and then solve.
x+2=0
-2 -2
x=-2
x+8=0
-8 -8
x=-8
So, your answers are x=-2 and x=-8. You can check by plugging in those two numbers as x.
The error is that the student put a decimal point in between the 9 and 3 instead of a multiplication sign.The answer is 9x3
