Answer» Let the TOTAL number of voters be x. Let y be the number of voters who will vote. The relationship given to us is that 60% of the total voters cast their vote. Therefore, this can be expressed mathematically as: y=0.6x. The graph of this EQUATION is attached as the first file. Let us now answer the two parts. Part (i) For the answer to this, please find the second attached graph. Since we are to find the total number of voters when 1200 voters cast their votes, we SEE the corresponding x AXIS and we see that x=2000. Part (ii) For the answer to this, please find the third attached graph. 480 is the number of people who voted when the total number of voters is 800. |
