A test has 10 questions worth 100 points in total. The test consists of multiple choice questions, which at worth 4 points each, and open-response questions, which are worth 12 points each. How many multiple choice questions are on the test

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

A test has 10 questions worth 100 points.

Points of each multiple choice question = 4

Points of each open-response question = 12

To find:

The number of multiple choice questions.

Solution:

Let x be the number of multiple choice questions and y be the open-response questions.

According to the question,

Total question : [tex]x+y=10[/tex]         ...(i)

Total points : [tex]4x+12y=100[/tex]      ...(ii)

Form (i), we get

[tex]y=10-x[/tex]         ...(iii)

Putting this in (ii), we get

[tex]4x+12(10-x)=100[/tex]

[tex]4x+120-12x=100[/tex]

[tex]-8x=100-120[/tex]

[tex]-8x=-20[/tex]

Dividing both sides by -8, we get

[tex]x=\dfrac{-20}{-8}[/tex]

[tex]x=2.5[/tex]

Since x is the number of multiple choice questions, so it cannot be a faction value.

Therefore, the number of multiple choice questions in test are either 2 or 3.

A table contains the ordered pairs (3, 42.25) and (5, 50.75). If the relationship in the table is linear, explain how to find the initial value.

I need the answer quick, and thank you!!!

Answers

Answer:

First you can find the rate of change to be 4.25. Then you can subtract 4.25 repeatedly until you get to an output with an input of zero. The initial value is the output when the input is zero. The initial value after subtracting 4.25 three times is 29.50. Because the inputs go by 2, the rate of change is half the difference of the outputs, or 4.25. Subtract 4.25 repeatedly 3 times to get to an output with an input of 0. Calculate 42.25 – (3 x 4.25).  The initial value is 29.50.

Hope this Helps!

Answers

Answer:

A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled x with entries 14, 28, 42. Column 2 is labeled y with entries 2, 4, 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Examining the response options:

A 2- compartment chart with 3 rows. Column 1 is designated x with records 1, 5, 6. compartment 2 is designated y with records 5, 20, 30.

No, as y = 25 not 20 and x = 5 .

A 2- compartment chart with 3 rows. Column 1 is identified x with approaches 48, 32, 16. compartment 2 is designated y with listings 4, 2, 1.

No, y =64 not 48 and x= 4.

A 2- compartment chart with 3 lines. compartment 1 is designated x with records 0, 1, 3. compartment 2 is designated y with records 90, 70, 25.

No, y= 25+3*45= 160 not 90 and x = 3.

A 2- compartment chart with 3 lines. compartment 1 is designated x with records 42, 28, 14. compartment 2 is designated y with records 2, 4, 6.

Yes, as 2*7 = 14, 4*7= 28, 6*7= 42.

Walkway Over the Hudson, a bridge that crosses the Hudson River in Poughkeepsie, is 2.063
kilometers long. Anping Bridge, which was built in China 850 years ago, is 2.07 kilometers long.
a. What is the total span of both bridges?
Show your thinking
b. How much longer is the Anping Bridge
than the Walkway Over the Hudson?

Answers

Answer: 4.126 km

Step-by-step explanation:

First, We have to find total span of both bridges

As Question indicates 'total' ,that is, we have to find bridge length in total ( You can join Bridges to have better understanding)

Now, Walkway over hundson Bridge length= 2.063 km

Amping bridge length= 2.07 km

So, Total span of both bridges = 2.063+2.07 = 4.133 km

b) Now Leah wanna walk across and back on walkway over hudson ,that is, she wanna return to starting point from where she walk forth

So,that means, she walk double distance of length of walkway over hudson

So, total distance = 2× 2.063

= 4.126 km

hope this helps,

Answers

Answer:

She made a profit of 1,335 cedis

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the profit made

Profit is selling price - cost price

Her cost price is 65 credits

For her selling price;

she sells 3 for 20 cedis

So the price she sold 210 will be;

(210 * 20)/3 = 1,400 cedis

So the profit made is;

1,400-65 = 1,335 cedis

Sean and his chartered a fishing boat for the day Sean caught a blue marlin and an amberjack. The weight of the blue marlin way 12 times as great of the amberjack. The combined weight of both fish was 273 pounds. How much did each fish weight

Answers

Answer:

The weight of the blue marlin = b = 252 pounds

The weight of the amber jack = a = 12 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Sean and his chartered a fishing boat for the day Sean caught a blue marlin and an amberjack.

Let

The weight of the blue marlin = b

The weight of the amber jack = a

The weight of the blue marlin weigh 12 times as that of the amberjack.

b= 12a

The combined weight of both fish was 273 pounds.

= a + b = 273 pounds

b = 12a

Hence

a + 12a = 273 pounds

13a = 273 pounds

a = 273 pounds/13

a = 21 pounds

b = 12a

b = 12 × 21 pounds

= 252 pounds

Hence:

The weight of the blue marlin = b = 252 pounds

The weight of the amber jack = a = 12 pounds

A system of linear equations includes the line that is created by the equation y = 0.5 x minus 1 and the line through the points (3, 1) and (–5, –7), shown below.

Answers

Answer:

(2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to get the equation of the line passing through the points (3, 1) and (–5, –7)

Equation of a line is y = mx+c

m is the slope

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = -7-1/-5-3

m = -8/-8

m = 1

Substitute m = 1 and the point (3, 1) into the equation y = mx+c and get c;

1 = 1(3) + c

1 = 3 + c

c = 1-3

c = -2

The required equation is y = x - 2

We are to look for the coordinate point (x,y) for which both lines intersects, then both equations will be equal as shown;

0.5x - 1 = x - 2

0.5x - x = -2+1

-0.5x = -1

x = -1/-0.5

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into y = x - 2

y = 2-2

y = 0

Hence the the coordinate point is (2, 0)

Answer: (2,0)

Finding a tutor for mathematics? If that's the problem

Step-by-step explanation:

Try asking friends, family, close people in your family about mathematics. Maybe they have the same problem and somehow got over it by studying, asking questions, or they have a tutor, etc

Try using that same method that they used. If none of them have problems, ask your parents about that. They might be willing to sit down and teach you a little bit...

I have always had problems with math so I am sorry if it doesn't work out for you

There are a lot of programs that provide tutors for all subjects.

One way to get a tutor is to simply look up “Tutors near me” and there should be a good amount of people looking to help depending where you live.

Another way is to go through your school and ask if they could set you up with one. Whether it’s college, junior high, high school, they can set you up with a high level professor and / or high school student who’s qualified. This is how i got my tutor for mathematics in high school :)

One other way i know of is to go through a teacher, friend, or family member to see if there is anyone they know who’d be happy to help.

13 was subtracted form a number and that difference was then divided by 5. After which, that quotient was multiplied by 7. The resulting product was -7. What was the number?

Answers

Answer:the number is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let x be the number  13 was subtracted from so  that the difference becomes x-13

i.  dividing  the resulting difference by 5, then  (x-13)/5

ii.  Multiplying  the quotient by 7 makes  the expression become (x-13)/5 x 7

 with the product coming  to -7  we have our final equation as

(x-13)/5 x 7 = -7

Step 2 -----solving  the equation

(x-13)/5 x 7 = -7

Ist  divide  both sides by 7,

(x-13)/5 =-1

cross multiplying gives

x-13=-5

x= -5+ 13

x=8

the number is 8
