Consider an election with 681 votes a) If there are 5 candidates, what is the smallest number of first-place votes a candidate could win with under the Plurality method?
Answer:
137 votes
Step-by-step explanation:
considering an election with 681 votes and 5 candidates up for the election
dividing the votes among'st 5 candidates
= 681 / 5 = 136.2 hence the least number of first-place votes needed by a candidate using the plurality method would be = 137 votes
136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 + 136.2 = 681 ( dividing the votes equally )
136 + 136 + 136 + 136+136 = 680
hence the remaining vote = 681 - 680 = 1
least first-place vote = 136 + 1 = 137 votes
Work out the circumference of a circle with diameter 1.8 cm.

d = 1.8cm
Substitute d = 1.8 into the above formula
Circumference of the circle is
3.142 × 1.8
= 5.6556
We have the final answer as
C = 5.6 cm to one decimal placeHope this helps you
Positive numbers are not closed under subtraction. Give an example of this 1
below.
Answer:
5 -3 = 2
3-5 = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we want to examine the validity of the statement by the use of an example.
Firstly, we need to understand the meaning of the fact that they are ‘closed’
By saying these numbers are closed under this arithmetic operation i.e subtraction, we directly mean that they obey the closure property.
Now, to obey the closure property means that if we move either way i.e by switching the numbers and performing the same arithmetic operation of subtraction, we are supposed to get same answer.
What this means in terms of examples is as follows;
Consider two positive numbers, 5 and 3
Now we know that 5-3 = 2
To check if the closure property is obeyed, switch the place of the numbers.
This means we would have;
3-5 = -2
We can see that both results are not the same. We can then conclude that the arithmetic operation of subtraction is not closed or does not obey the closure property for positive numbers.
Farmer Green sent his two children out to count the hens and sheep. His daughter counted 40 hens, and his son counted 100 legs. How many of each animal is on the farm?
Answer:
40 hens, 5 sheep
Step-by-step explanation:
40 x 2 = 80 (hens have 2 legs)
100 - 80 = 20 ----> 20 legs left for sheep,, sheep have 4 legs
20/4 = 5 so there are 5 sheep
Answer:
40 hens, 5 sheep
Step-by-step explanation:
40 x 2 = 80 (hens have 2 legs)
100 - 80 = 20 ----> 20 legs left for sheep,, sheep have 4 legs

Joshua remembered he had a coupon in his pocket that would take and additional 30%off the price of the shirts. Calculate the new total cost of the shirts including a sales tax of 6.5%
Answer:
New cost of the shirt=$39.028416
Step-by-step explanation:
Target is having a Back to School sale where all polo shirts are discounted by 20%. Joshua wants to buy five shirts: two cost $10.98 each, one costs $11.50, and two others cost $15.99 each. Joshua remembered he had a coupon in his pocket that would take an additional 30% of the shirts. Which choice represents the new total cost of the shirts including the sales tax of 6.5%
Solution
Two shirts cost=$10.98 each
One shirt cost=$11.50
Two shirts cost=$15.99 each
Total cost of shirts=(2*$10.98 + $11.50 + 2*$15.99)
=$21.96 + $11.50 + $31.98
=$65.44
All polo shirts are discounted by 20%
It means he would pay 100%-20% of the total cost
100%-20%=80%
Discounted price=$65.44 * 80%
=$65.44 * 0.8
=$52.352
He has a coupon of 30% off the shirt
100% -30%=70%
=$52.352*70%
=$52.352 * 0.7
=$36.6464
Plus Sales tax of 6.5%
6.5% of $36.6464
=0.065* $36.6464
=$2.382016
New cost of the shirt=$36.6464 + $2.382016
=$39.028416

Jeanette purchased a concert ticket on a web site. The original price of the ticket was $75.
She used a coupon code to receive a 20% discount. The website applied a 10% service fee
to the discounted price. Jeannette's ticket was less than the original price by what percent?
Answer:
Jeannette's ticket was less than the original pice by 30%
Step-by-step explanation:
original price = $75
percentage discount = 20% of original price = 20% of $75
discounted price = [tex]\frac{20}{100} \times\ 75\ =\ 15[/tex]
discounted price = $15
website service fee = 10% of original price
website service fee = [tex]\frac{10}{100}\times 75 = \$7.5[/tex]
New discounted price = discount price + website service fee
= 15 + 7.5 = $22.5
Next, let us calculate what percentage of the original price that will give the new discount price.
Let the percentage of the original price = x%
x% of 75 = $22.5
[tex]\frac{x}{100} \times\ 75\ = 22.5\\\\\frac{75x}{100} = 22.5\\\\75x = 2250\\\\x = \frac{2250}{75} \\\\x = 30[/tex]
Therefore, Jeannette's ticket was less than the original pice by 30%
Azila is a salesgirl for a cosmetic product. Her salary is RM375 per week with 5% commission of her weekly sales. What is the least value of a product that Aliza must sell if she targets a minimum salary of RM550 for a particular week?
Answer:
RM3,500
Step-by-step explanation:
Salary=RM375 per week
5% commission per week
If she target a minimum of RM 550.
Let x=minimum Sales
RM550=RM375 + 5% of x
RM550=RM375 + 0.05x
RM550 - RM375=0.05x
RM175=0.05x
Divide both sides by 0.05
RM175/0.05=0.05x/0.05
RM3,500=x
For Azila to earn a minimum of RM550 in a week, her salary will be RM375 plus 5% commission on the sales of RM3,500 value of product.
Check:
5% of RM3,500
=0.05*3,500
=RM175
Plus
Salary of RM375
RM175 + RM375=RM550

The minimum is found from differentiating the function, f(x), with respect to x and looking for the zeros of the result as follows;
f'(x) = 2·x -4
f'(x) = 0 = 2·x -4
x = 2
The y-coordinate gives; f(2) = 2² - 4×2 - 5 = -9
Therefore, the symmetry line is a vertical line passing through (2, -9)
The x-intercept is the point at which y = 0, therefore, from f(x) = x² - 4·x - 5, we have;
0 = x² - 4·x - 5 = (x - 5)·(x + 1)
Therefore, the x-intercept are x = 5 or -1
The x-intercept are (5, 0) and (-1, 0)
The y-intercept occur at the point where the x value = 0, therefore, we have;
The y-intercept occur at y = f(0) = 0² - 4·0 - 5 = -5
The y-intercept is (0, -5)
Re-writing the equation in vertex form y = a(x - h)² + k gives;
f(x) = x² - 4·x - 5 = 1·(x - 2)² - 9
Therefore, the vertex is (2, -9)
Answer:
see attached graph
The x-intercept are (5, 0) and (-1, 0)
The y-intercept is (0, -5)
The vertex is (2, -9)

While Mary Corens was a student at the University of Tennessee, she borrowed $14,000 in student loans at an annual interest rate of 7%. If Mary repays $1,800 per year, then how long (to the nearest year) will it take her to repay the loan? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
The number of years needed to repay the loan is 11.47 years or 11 years.
Step-by-step explanation:
The loan amount, Present value = $14000
Annual repayment amount (annuity) = $1800
Interest rate = 7% per annum.
Now we have to find the number of years consumed to repay the loan amount. Below is the calculation.
Present value = (Annuity[1-(1+r)^-n] )/ r
14000 = (1800 × [1- (1+ 0.07 )^-n] )/ 0.07
14000 × 0.07 = 1800 × [1- (1+ 0.07 )^-n]
980 = 1800 × [1- (1+ 0.07 )^-n]
0.54 = [1- (1+ 0.07 )^-n]
n = 11.47 or 11 years.

The circle shown above has a radius of 5 units, and the central angle of the sector that is shaded is 25π radians. Determine the area of the shaded sector, in terms of π. Enter the area of the sector.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
The radius of the circle (r) = 5 units
The central angle (θ) = 25π
A sector of a circle is the portion of a circle made up of two of its radii and an arc. The area of a sector that subtends with a central angle (θ) and a radius (r) is given by the formula:
[tex]Area\ of\ sector=\frac{\theta}{360} *\pi r^2[/tex]
Substituting the radius of the circle and the central angle:
[tex]Area\ of\ sector=\frac{\theta}{360} *\pi r^2\\\\Area\ of\ sector=\frac{25\pi}{360} *\pi (5)^2\\\\Area\ of\ sector=\frac{125\pi^2}{72}[/tex]
Which of the following functions is neither even nor odd? A. f(x)=x6−3x4−4x2 B. f(x)=2x3−3x2−4x+4 C. f(x)=x5−2x3−3x D. f(x)=6x5−x3
even function : [tex] f(x)=f(-x)[/tex] , odd function: $f(x)=-f(-x)$
it is neither odd nor event when both condition don't hold.
See option B.
$f(x)=2x^3-3x^2-4x+4$
$f(-x)=-2x^3-3x^2+4x+4=-(2x^3+3x^2-4x-4)$
clearly, it is neither odd nor even.
Quadrilateral ABCD has coordinates A (3, 1), B (4, 4), C (7, 5), D (6, 2). Quadrilateral ABCD is a (4 points)
Answer:
Quadrilateral ABCD is a SQUARE
Step-by-step explanation:
When we are given coordinates (x1, x2) and (y1 , y2) for a Quadrilateral, we solve for the sides using this formula.
√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
A (3, 1), B (4, 4), C (7, 5), D (6, 2)
Side AB = A (3, 1), B (4, 4)
√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
= √(4 - 3)² + (4 - 1)²
= √1² + 3²
= √1 + 9
= √10
Side BC = B (4, 4), C (7, 5)
√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
= √(7 - 4)² + (5 - 4)²
= √3² + 1²
= √9 + 1
= √10
Side CD = C (7, 5), D (6, 2)
√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
= √(6 - 7)² + (2 - 5)²
= √(-1) ² + (-3)²
= √1 + 9
= √10
Side AD = A (3, 1), D (6, 2)
√(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
= √(6 - 3)² + (2 - 1)²
= √3² + 1²
= √9 + 1
= √10
From the above calculation,
Side AB = √10
Side BC = √10
Side CD = √10
Side AD = √10
Hence, AB = BC = CD = AD
When all the side of a Quadrilateral are the same or equal to each other, it means the Quadrilateral is a square.
Therefore, Quadrilateral ABCD is a SQUARE
