Answer:

15 answers

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question we need to set up an equation.

Let's name the number of incorrect answers x.

<u>We can set up an equation that's essentially:</u>

(Points for correct answer)*(number of correct answers)+(points for incorrect answer)*(number of incorrect answers)=final score

When we plug in our numbers and variables it looks like this:

5(3)+(-2x)=-15

Simplify

15-2x=-15

Subtract 15 from both sides

-2x=-30

Divide both sides by -2

x=15

This means Smitha attempted 15 wrong answers, and that there were 18 questions in total.

Which the parabola opens,
Dmitrij [34]

Table (A) represents the parabola y = x² - 6x in which the parabola opens and the y-intercept is (0, 0) table (A) is the correct choice.

<h3>What is a parabola?</h3>

It is defined as the graph of a quadratic function that has something bowl-shaped.

We have the tables shown in the picture.

We know the quadratic form of a parabola is:

y = ax² + bx + c

If a > 0 the parabola opens

In the equation:

y = x² - 6x

1 > 0 the parabola opens and y-intercept is:

y = 0 (plug x = 0 in the given equation)

a = 1, b = -6, and c = 0

Thus, table (A) represents the parabola y = x² - 6x in which the parabola opens and the y-intercept is (0, 0) table (A) is the correct choice.
