6,000 people voted in a town election. Of the two candidates, the winning candidate received 4,000 more votes than the losing candidate. How many votes did the winner get?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = the number of votes of the first person

winner  = x + 4000

x+ x+4000 = 6000

2x=2000

x=1000

first person = x = 1000

winner  = x+4000 = 5000

The winner got 5000 votes
