Answer: 200

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

In a sample 76 people or 38% voted  the mayor to be prosecuted.

solution:

how many people were in that sample

if 38% = 76 people

therefore;

let

p = total number of people

76/p = 38/100

cross multiply both sides

38p = 7600

divide both sides by 38

38p /38 = 7600 /38

p = 200

the number of people in the sample original was 200.

Lonzell said the function shown in the graph is positive on the interval (−,) and negative on the interval (−,−)open negative 5
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

The positive graph is on the points  (-5,-4) and (2,5)

And, negative would be (-4,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

As it seems that fgraph shows positive in the case when it is over x-axis, and negative when it is below y-axis

As on the interval (-1,5)

The graph is below x-axis i.e. on (-1,2)

And, over x-axis i.e. on (2,5)

At this point Lonzell’s  is not correct

As on the interval (-5,-1)

The graph is below x-axis i.e. on (-4,-1)

And, over x-axis i.e. on (-5,4)

 At this point Lonzell’s  is not correct

So,

The positive graph is on the points  (-5,-4) and (2,5)

And, negative would be (-4,2)
