In the last election, Candidate C received 15,000 fewer votes than candidate B. If a total of 109,000 votes were cast, how many votes did candidate B receive? What is the equation for this problem and what is the answer to it?

B receives 62000 votes

C receives 47000 votes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C be the vote for candidate C

Let B be the vote for candidates D

Let the total vote be T. Therefore,

C + B = T (1)

But C receives 15000 votes fewer than B ie

C = B —15000 (2)

Total votes, T = 109000

Substituting the value of C and T into equation 1

C + B = T

B — 15000 + B = 109000

Collect like terms

B + B = 109000 + 15000

2B = 124000

Divide both side by the coefficient B i.e 2

B = 124000/2

B = 62000

Putting the value of B into equation 2;

C = B —15000

But B = 62000

C = 62000 — 15000

C = 47000

B receives 62000 votes

C receives 47000 votes

answer

false

explanation

these practices describe the manner the land use outcome is attained. land management methods implemented by corporations are a mandatory because they are a driver for better land use results economically, socially and environmentally. corporations are required to understand the connection between land use , and land management practices to support sustainable land use policies

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   (7x + 6y) ( 49x^2 - 42xy + 36y^2)

discussion:

in general, the factorization of a^3 + b^3 is

a^3 + b^ 3 = (a + b) ( a^2 - ab + b^2)

in our case note that 343 = 7^3 and 216 = 6^3 so the equation becomes:

343x^3 + 216y^3 = (7x)^3 + (6y)^3

if you think of a (above) as 7x and b as 6y the factorization becomes

343x^3 + 216y^3 =

((7x + 6y) (   (7x)^2 - 7x*6y + (6y)^2)   =

(7x + 6y) ( 49x^2 - 42xy + 36y^2)

(a + b) (a^2 - a b + b^2)
