To find the number of votes Angel Cruz is expected to win by, first determine the percentage of votes each candidate received. Angel received \( \frac{483}{803} \approx 0.601 \), or 60.1%. Terry received \( \frac{320}{803} \approx 0.399 \), or 39.9%. If 6,424 people vote, Angel would receive \( 0.601 \times 6424 \approx 3864 \) votes and Terry would receive \( 0.399 \times 6424 \approx 2560 \) votes. The difference is \( 3864 - 2560 = 1304 \) votes.

Only \( (2, 6) \) satisfies both equations.

Expanding the left side gives \( 5x + 15 \), which matches the right side. Therefore, the equation is true for all values of x, leading to infinitely many solutions.

The vertex of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{9}(x - 7)^2 + 3 \) occurs at \( (7, 3) \). This represents the minimum height of the metal ball. The vertex form of a quadratic function, \( a(x - h)^2 + k \), indicates the vertex as \( (h, k) \). Since \( h = 7 \) and \( k = 3 \), the minimum height is 3 inches above the ground.

Since the rate of drainage is 3 liters per second, over one minute (60 seconds), the volume drained would be 3 * 60 = 180 liters. Converting to milliliters (1 liter = 1000 mL), the answer is 180,000 mL.

To have no real solution, the discriminant of \(x(q x - 64) + 20 = 0\) must be negative. Solving gives \(\)q^2 < 16[/latex], so the smallest integer for [latex]q[/latex] is 4.

The lines have the same slope but different intercepts, indicating that they are parallel and do not intersect at any point.

Calculate percentages: Candidate X received \( \frac{350}{800} = 0.4375 \), or 43.75%. Candidate Y received \( \frac{450}{800} = 0.5625 \), or 56.25%. If 5,600 people vote, Candidate X would receive \( 0.4375 \times 5600 = 2450 \) votes, and Candidate Y \( 0.5625 \times 5600 = 3150 \) votes. The difference is \( 3150 - 2450 = 700 \) votes.

Rewrite \(f(x)\) in vertex form by completing the square, yielding \(f(x) = 3(x + 4)^2 - 5\). The minimum of \(f(x)\) is at \(x = -4\), so \(g(x) = f(x - 4)\) shifts this to \(x = 0\).

To find \( p \): \( 75 = \frac{p}{100} \times 150 \implies p = \frac{75 \times 100}{150} = 50 \). Calculate \( 50 \% \) of \( 75 \): \( \frac{50}{100} \times 75 = 37.5 \).

Substitute \( (-1, 3) \) into both inequalities. Both inequalities are satisfied.

Let the number of small candles be represented by \( x \), and the number of large candles by \( y \). The total number of candles is at least 200, so we have the inequality:

\( x + y geq 200 \).

The budget constraint is that the total cost must not exceed $2,200. Therefore, we have the equation:

\( 4.90x + 11.60y leq 2,200 \).

We want to maximize the number of large candles, \( y \). First, solve for \( x \) in terms of \( y \) using the inequality:

\( x = 200 - y \).

Substitute this into the budget constraint:

\( 4.90(200 - y) + 11.60y leq 2,200 \)

Simplify:

\( 980 - 4.90y + 11.60y leq 2,200 \)

Combine like terms:

\( 980 + 6.70y leq 2,200 \)

Subtract 980 from both sides:

\( 6.70y leq 1,220 \)

Solve for \( y \):

\( y leq rac{1,220}{6.70} approx 182.09 \)

Since the number of candles must be an integer, the maximum number of large candles is 182.

The vertex of the function \( f(x) = \frac{1}{8}(x - 6)^2 + 5 \) occurs at \( (6, 5) \). This represents the minimum height of the kite. The vertex form of a quadratic function, \( a(x - h)^2 + k \), indicates the vertex as \( (h, k) \). Since \( h = 6 \) and \( k = 5 \), the minimum height is 5 feet above the ground.

Testing each pair shows that only \( (4, 5) \) satisfies both equations.

Since \( \triangle PQR \) and \( \triangle STU \) are congruent, corresponding angles are equal. Angle \( Q \) and \( T \) are right angles, so each measures 90°. Therefore, angle \( U \) must be equal to angle \( P \), which is 25°.

To find \( a \), set \( r(x) = 0 \): \( 8x - 16 = 0 Rightarrow x = 2 \). Thus, \( a = 2 \). For \( b \), evaluate \( r(0) = -16 \). Therefore, \( a + b = 2 - 16 = -14 \).

Start by setting up the equation: \( 32,000 = 4,000(2)^{3r} \). Divide both sides by 4,000 to obtain \( 8 = (2)^{3r} \). Taking the logarithm base 2 of both sides yields \( 3 = 3r \). Therefore, \( r = 1 \).

The half-life is 3 years, so the remaining quantity after \( x \) minutes is \( Q = 5 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{x}{3 \cdot 365 \cdot 24 \cdot 60}} \).

To find \( f(0) \), substitute \( 0 \) for \( x \): \( f(0) = 500(0.05)^0 \). Since \( (0.05)^0 = 1 \), the expression becomes \( 500 imes 1 = 500 \).

Solving for \( y \) using substitution or elimination, we find that \( y = 30 \).

Since \(f(x) = 1.2x\) shows a constant proportional increase, the function is linear and increases with \(x\). Thus, the correct answer is 'Increasing Linear.'

The congruence of triangles implies that angle \( R \) is equal to angle \( L \), so the measure of angle \( R \) is 30°.

To cover the walls twice, double the total area \(w\) to get \(2w\). Since each gallon covers 180 square feet, divide \(2w\) by 180 to get \(P = \frac{w}{90}\).

The percentage can be calculated using the formula: \( \frac{120}{400} \times 100 = 30\% \).

To find the surface area, find the side length first. The volume of the cube is \( V = s^3 \). Given \( V = 729 \), \( s = \sqrt[3]{729} = 9 \). The surface area formula is \( 6s^2 \). Therefore, the surface area is \( 6(9)^2 = 486 \) square units.

To have no real solution, the discriminant of \(x(p x - 90) + 49 = 0\) must be negative. Solving gives \(\)p^2 < 49[/latex], so the smallest integer for [latex]p[/latex] is 7.

Substitute \( t = 30 \) into the equation: \( 6m + 2(30) = 180 \Rightarrow 6m + 60 = 180 \Rightarrow 6m = 120 \Rightarrow m = 20 \).

To find \( p \): \( 45 = \frac{p}{100} \times 90 \implies p = \frac{45 \times 100}{90} = 50 \). Calculate \( 50 \% \) of \( 45 \): \( \frac{50}{100} \times 45 = 22.5 \).

To find the area in square miles, divide by \(1760^2\): \(23,184,000 / 3,097,600 = 7.48\) square miles.

To ensure no solution, we set the slopes equal, indicating b = 48 based on intercept calculations.

The percentage can be calculated using the formula: \( \frac{350}{700} \times 100 = 50\% \).

For a quadratic in the form \( y = ax^2 + bx + c \), the minimum or maximum value of \( y \) occurs at \( x = \frac{-b}{2a} \). Here, \( a = 1 \) and \( b = -10 \), so \( x = \frac{10}{2} = 5 \).

Since the triangles are similar, corresponding angles have the same trigonometric ratios. Thus, \( \sin(E) = \sin(B) = \frac{9}{15} \).

Let the number of people who voted against the proposal be y. According to the problem, twice as many people voted in favor, so the number in favor is 2y. The report states that 6,000 more residents voted in favor, so the equation is 2y = y + 6,000. Solving for y gives 6,000.

The sum of the solutions of a polynomial equation can be determined using the relationship between the coefficients and the sum of the roots. For each factor, find the solutions and sum them. The given information specifies that the total sum of solutions is \( \frac{20}{3} \), which leads to solving for \( p \).

The minimum value of \( y \) occurs at \( x = \frac{-b}{2a} \), giving \( x = \frac{6}{2} = 3 \).

To find \( f(0) \), substitute \( 0 \) for \( x \): \( f(0) = 250(0.4)^0 \). Since \( (0.4)^0 = 1 \), the expression becomes \( 250 imes 1 = 250 \).

To cover the walls twice, double the total area \(w\) to get \(2w\). Since each gallon covers 250 square feet, divide \(2w\) by 250 to get \(P = \frac{w}{125}\).

Calculate the sum of the solutions for each factor separately. Use the given total sum of 10 to find \( p \).

Using the quadratic formula, \(x = \frac{8 \pm \sqrt{64 - 28}}{2} = 4 \pm \sqrt{9}\). So, the solution can be written as \(4 + \sqrt{9}\) and the correct value of \(k\) is 9.

To find \( p \): \( 120 = \frac{p}{100} \times 200 \implies p = \frac{120 \times 100}{200} = 60 \). Calculate \( 60 \% \) of \( 120 \): \( \frac{60}{100} \times 120 = 72 \).

Substitute \( y = 24 \) into the equation: \( 3.5x + 7(24) = 140 \Rightarrow 3.5x + 168 = 140 \Rightarrow 3.5x = -28 \). Since \( x \) cannot be negative, the shelter cannot care for any cats, making this question tricky.

To cover the walls twice, double the total area \(w\) to get \(2w\). Since each gallon covers 200 square feet, divide \(2w\) by 200 to get \(P = \frac{w}{100}\).

Since the decay factor is 0.70 annually, this translates to a 30% decrease per year, so \(q = 30\).
