Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: 8525

Step-by-step explanation

Let the total number votes = x

Ratio of yes votes = 7

Ratio of no votes. = 4

Total vote. = 11

Total number that voted for yes

= 5425

Therefore total number of vote casted.

7/11 x X = 5425

7x/11 = 5425

7x = 5425 x 11

7x = 59675

To find x , divide through by 7

x = 59675/11

= 8525

Find the value of m .
35/50 = m/10
m = ___.

Answers

(35)/(50)=(m)/(10)   Multiple 10 on both sides to get m by itself

(10)(35)/(50)=(m)/(10)(10)

(350)/(50)=m  Simplify

7 = m

First, cross multiply

35 * m = 50 * 10

35m = 500

Then, Divide both sides by 35

m = 500 / 35

m = 14(2)/(7) or 14.29

Amie published her first book. She was given $20,000 and an additional $0.15 for each copy that sold. Her earnings,d, in dollars,from the publication of the book are given d=20,009 + 0.15n where n is the number of copies sold. During the first year, Amie earned $22,100 from the publication and the sale of her book. How many copies of her book were sold?

Answers

Answer: 139 copies of her book were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Earnings (d)  

  • d= 20,009+0.15n

Where "n" is the number of copies sold.

If she earned $22,100, we have to replace the value of d by the number given:

22,100 = 20,009 +0.15 n

Solving for n

22,100-20,009 = 0.15n

2,091=0.15n

2,091/15=n

139.4=n

n≅139 books (rounded)

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.  

d=20,009 + 0.15n
$22,100 = 20,009 + 0.15n
$2091 = 0.15n
n = 2091/.15 = 13940
