PLEASE HELP!! In a recent student government election, the ratio of students who voted for the winner to all the students who voted was 0.88. The number of students who voted was 125. How many votes did the winner get?
Answers
Well,
The the ratio of (number of students who voted for the winner) to (total number of students who voted) is 0.88:1.00 (note that .88 (or 88%) represents the number of students who voted for the winner.
We can re-write the decimal as a percent. 88% of the students voted for the winner.
The total number of students who voted was 125. Therefore (.88)125 = number of students who voted for the winner.
(.88)125 = 110
The winner of the election got 110 votes.
The cable company charges $30 to install new supplies at your house. Each month the cable bill is $75. What equation models the total cost for cable over time?
Answers
x is the amount of months y is the total bill
75x +30 = y
This is because 30 dollars is a one time fee so you will only add it once. 75 dollars is a recurring fee, so you pay it every month. Y is the total cost for cable.
