Pls now! a candidate took a phone poll of 110 people. of the 110 people polled, 67 said they would vote for the candidate. there are 9570 people in the district expected to vote. based on this poll, what is the projected number of votes the candidate will receive? enter only the number of votes.

The candidate should get 5829 votes.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportion question. The ratio should hold for both the pole and the actual vote.

Equation

x /9570 = 67/110          Multiply both sides by 9570

x = 67 * 9570 / 110       Multiply the two numerators.

x = 641190 / 110            Divide by 110

x = 5829

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:
