Maya and Sally were the two finalists in a singing competition. The person with the most votes from the audience was chosen as th\e winner. Sally received 25% of the total votes and lost by 62,500 votes. No person in the audience was allowed to vote more than once. The equation below represents this situation, where y is the total number of votes cast and x is the number of votes Maya received: x − 62,500 = 0.25y If a total of 125,000 people voted, how many votes did Maya receive? Do not enter comma for placeholder values. Numerical Answers Expected!

Answers

Answer 1

y is the total number of votes, which is given as 125,000

Replace Y in the equation and solve for x.


X - 62500 = 0.25(125000)

Simplify:

x - 62500 = 31250

Add 62500 to both sides:

X = 31250 + 62500

X = 93750

Ms. Adams claims that the closure properties for polynomials are closed when dividing polynomials. Mr. Aroxa claims that the closure properties for polynomials are not closed when dividing polynomials. Who is correct? Explain your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Mr. Aroxa is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that polynomials are closed under addition, subtraction and multiplication as when we will add, subtract or multiply two polynomials we will get a polynomial.

Polynomials are not closed under division because division of two polynomials is not necessarily a polynomial.

We can see it by dividing a binomial by a trinomial. This division will result in a rational expression and it will have negative exponent. Negative exponents are not allowed in polynomials.

Therefore, Mr. Aroxa is correct.

Plug in each number in the set of x for x to get the set for y

y = x + 5

When x = 0, y = 5

5 = 0 + 5

When x = 1, y = 6

6 = 1 + 5

When x = 2, y = 7

7 = 2 + 5

When x = 3, y = 8

8 = 3 + 5

When x = 4, y = 9

9 = 4 + 5

y = 5, 6, 7, 8, 9

what proberty is a=1a and also 3-3×=3(1-×)

Answers

The first one,

[tex]a=1\times a[/tex]  is the multiplicative identity property.

The identity element of multiplication of real numbers is 1.

This means that if you multiply any real number [tex]a[/tex] by [tex]1[/tex] you get the same real number.


The second one,

[tex]3-3x=3(1-x)[/tex] is the distributive of property of multiplication over subtraction.


Answer:

a = 1a ---> multiplicative identity property of 1

3 - 3x = 3 (1 - x) ---> distributive property of multiplication (over subtraction)

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 1a holds the the multiplicative identity property of 1.

This property of identity states that whenever you multiply any number with 1, the result is same as the original number. It means that 1 has no effect when multiplied with any number.

3 - 3x = 3 (1 - x) holds the distributive property of multiplication (over subtraction)

This distributive property is used to multiply a single term with two or more terms inside the brackets or you can say the equations which are in the form a (b + c).

Its main purpose is to expand the terms by first multiplying each term inside the bracket with the term outside the term and then adding/subtracting the like terms together.

a bread recipe uses 3 tablespoons of olive oil for every 2 cloves of cushed garlic.how much garlic for one tablespoon of olive oil

Answers

Well this ratio is called a unit rate. So put the garlic over the 3 because the table spoon is your 1. So since you know have 2/3 divide the denominator by itself so you can get your unit. 3 divided by 3 is 1. Then divide the numerator by the denominator. And you get 0.6 repeating. Your answer is 0.6 repeating/1.

Answer:  The required quantity of garlic used is 0.67 cloves.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a bread recipe uses 3 tablespoons of olive oil for every 2 cloves of crushed garlic.

We are to find the quantity of garlic that is used for one tablespoon of olive oil.

We will be using the UNITARY method to solve the given problem.

We have

quantity of garlic that is used for 3 tablespoons of olive oil = 2 cloves.

So, the quantity of garlic that is used for 1 tablespoon of olive oil will be

[tex]\dfrac{2}{3}=0.6666....=0.67~\textup{cloves}.[/tex]

Thus, the required quantity of garlic used is 0.67 cloves.

Can you please write a proportion with the answer?

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have that Ming learned that the exchange rate is 6 Tala for $2. Therefore, if she exchanged $6, she would get:

[tex]\frac{6}{2}=\frac{x}{6}[/tex]

2. Now, you must solve for [tex]x[/tex], which is sthe amount of Tala:
