In an election with exactly 2 candidates, 373 votes were cast. If the winner's margin of victory was 87 votes, how many did she receive?

Answers

Answer 1
Let the number of votes the loser received be x,

number of votes the winner received = x + 87
total number of votes = 2x + 87
2x + 87 = 373
2x = 286
x = 143
number of votes the winner received = 143 + 87
= 230

She received 230 votes.

Our teacher had1/2 of an eraser left.she gave that to her 2 students equally.how much of the eraser did every student take home

Answers

Hello,

If the teacher has 1/2 of an eraser, and she divides it into 2 pieces to give 1 to each of her students, she gives (1/2) / 2 = (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4 of the eraser to each student.

Each student takes home 1/4 of the eraser.

Hope this helps!
1/2 an eraser is equally divided among 2 students......
1/2/2= 1/4 

Thus each student receives 1/4 of the eraser

Elizabeth received her last check for the summer job on the 12th and withdrew her car down payment after making another deposit. What is her balance C?

A. $273.50

B. $396.50 (My answer)

C. $285.50

D. $385.50

I added the deposits and then subtracted the withdrawal, is that right?

Answers

Yes your answer is correct. Good job:)

Answer: Yes, Her balance C=$396.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table, the balance amount on 2nd September = $920

On 5th September (9/5/06), Elizabeth deposit amount = $65.00

On 12th September  (9/12/06), Elizabeth deposit amount = $61.50

Deposit amount till 12th September=[tex]\$65+\$61.5=\$126.50[/tex]

Therefore, the  balance amount on 12th September = [tex]\$920+\$126.20=\$1046.20[/tex]

On 12th September , Elizabeth withdrawal amount = $650.00

Therefore, the balance amount = [tex]C=\$1046.20-\$650.0=\$396.5[/tex]

Hence, B is the right answer.

Her balance C=$396.5.

Holly wants to save money for an emergency. Holly invests 1,500 in an account that pays an interest rate of 6.75%. How many years will it take for the account to reach 7300? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

The formula is
A=p (1+r)^t
A future value 7300
P present value 1500
R interest rate 0.0675
T time?
7300=1500 (1+0.0675)^t
Solve for t
Divide both sides by 1500
7300/1500=1.0675^t
Take the log for both sides
Log (7300/1500)=t×log (1.0675)
Divide both sides by log (1.0675)
T=log(7,300÷1,500)÷log(1.0675)
T=24.2 years round your answer to get 24 years

Hope it helps!
Although the problem didn't mention it, I guess this is a compound interest, if so, then:

A= P(1+i%)ⁿ , where P is the original capital, i% = interest and n= number of years

7300 = 1500(1 + 0.0675)ⁿ

7300/1500 = (1.0675)ⁿ

4.86666 = (1,0675)ⁿ

log(4.86666)= n.log(1.0675)
0.687231 = n(0.028367)

n = 0.687231 / 0.028367

n = 24.23 years

Which mathematical term cannot be defined for all cases in a system of geometry?

Answers

The national debt has grown tremendously from 1960 to 2010. The debt was increased by 47.36 times the debt from 1960. That's all I could come up with. If you need help then don't hesitate to ask 

The scenario describes calculating the multiple of growth in the US national debt from 1970 to 1990 using scientific notation, showing that the debt was nearly 9 times larger in 1990 than in 1970

Let's create a scenario involving the United States' national debt from two different decades using multiplication in scientific notation. Imagine the government wanted to compare the debt from 1970 to that of 1990 to analyze the growth. The debt in 1970 was approximately $370.9 billion, and in 1990, about $3,233.3 billion. To find out how many times larger the debt was in 1990 compared to 1970, we'd convert these numbers into scientific notation and divide the 1990 figure by the 1970 figure.

In scientific notation, the 1970 debt is 3.709 x 1011 dollars, and the 1990 debt is 3.2333 x 1012 dollars. To perform the division, we have (3.2333 x 1012) / (3.709 x 1011) which gives us approximately 8.71. This means the national debt in 1990 was nearly 9 times larger than it was in 1970

The force of gravity is less on Mars than it is on Earth. As a result, the weight of an object on Mars m is 40% of its weight on Earth w. Determine which function you would use to find the weight on Mars of a space probe that weighs 15 lb on Earth. Then find the objects weight on Mars.

Answers

If the weight of an object on Mars (m) is 40% of its weight on Earth(w), then our equation would be:

m = 0.4w

Space probe:
m = 0.4(15)
m = 6 lb
The general function is y =0.4.(x), where:

y = the weight on Mars
x = the weight on earth
and 0.4 a coefficient (given = 40% = 0.4)

Now if x = 15lb then on mars it weights y = 0.4.(15) = 6 lb

What is the rate at which work is done on the refrigerator? carnot?

Answers

Work done = Force x Distance
Work done = Energy converted

The rate at which work is done on the refrigerator and Carnot refrigerator depends on the cooling effect desired and the efficiency of the refrigerator.

For a refrigerator,

The coefficient of performance is Qc / W

For a Carnot refrigerator,

The coefficient of performance is Tc / (Th - Tc).

We have,

The rate at which work is done on the refrigerator depends on the specific context or situation.

In general terms,

Work is done on a refrigerator when an external force or energy is applied to the refrigerator to compress the refrigerant and drive the cooling cycle.

This work is usually done by a compressor, which requires energy input to operate.

The efficiency of a refrigerator, including Carnot refrigerators, is given by the coefficient of performance (COP).

The COP is defined as the ratio of the cooling effect (Qc) to the work input (W):

COP = Qc / W

For a Carnot refrigerator, which is an idealized and reversible refrigerator operating between two temperature reservoirs, the COP is given by:

COP = Tc / (Th - Tc)

Where:

Tc = Temperature of the cold reservoir (inside the refrigerator)

Th = Temperature of the hot reservoir (outside the refrigerator)

Generally, higher-efficiency refrigerators require less work input to achieve a given cooling effect.

However, the actual rate of work done on a specific refrigerator depends on its design, efficiency, and the cooling requirements of the system.

Thus,

The rate at which work is done on the refrigerator and Carnot depends on the cooling effect desired and the efficiency of the refrigerator.

A problem states: "There are 5 more girls than boys at the party. There are 27 children at the party in all. How many boys are there at the party?"

Let b represent the number of boys.

Which expression represents the number of girls?
A .b+5 B. b*5 C. b-5 D. 5-b

Answers

27-5 = 22

22/11 = 11

there are 11 boys at the party

expression = b+5

if b = boys......and there are 5 more girls then boys.....then the expression that represents girls is : b + 5

b + b + 5 = 27
2b + 5 = 27
2b = 27 - 5
2b = 22
b = 22/2
b = 11......there are 11 boys

g = b + 5
g = 11 + 5
g = 16....there are 16 girls
