The total number of marks in the examination is <u>500 marks</u> when the passing percentage is 40%, and a candidate securing 190 marks, failed by 10 marks.

In the question, we are given that in an examination, a candidate has to secure 40 percent of the marks to pass.

We are asked the total number of marks in the examination if a candidate secured 190 marks and failed by 10 marks.

The marks secured by the candidate = 190 marks.

The marks which he failed by = 10 marks.

Thus, passing marks = 190 + 10 = 200 marks.

We assume the total marks to be x marks.

We are given that to pass, a candidate needs 40 percent of the total marks.

Thus, passing marks = 40% of x marks.

But, we calculated the passing marks to be 200 marks.

Thus, we get an equation,

40% of x = 200,

or, 40/100 * x = 200,

or, x = 200*100/40 = 500.

Thus, the total number of marks in the examination is <u>500 marks</u>, when the passing percentage is 40%, and a candidate securing 190 marks, failed by 10 marks.

A pharmacy claims that the average medication costs $32 but it could differ as much as $8. Write and solve an absolute value ine
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Therefore, Option C is correct that is |x-32|\leq8|{\text{the medication costs range from $24to $40}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given medication cost $32

Since, we have given as much as 8 so the inequality will maximum goes upto 8.

|x-32|\leq8

Now, we will solve the inequality for x we will get

We will first open the modulus function by its definition we will get

which is |x| is +x  and -x

(x-32)\leq8

x=32+8=40

x=40

And -(x-32)\leq8

-x+32=8

x=24

Therefore, Option C is correct

F(x) = -2x + 4<br> g(x) = 2x^2 – 2x - 8<br> Find: (gof)(x)
icang [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=-2x+4\\g(x)=2x^2-2x-8\\(g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))\\=g(-2x+4)\\=2(-2x+4)^2-2(-2x+4)-8\\=2(4x^2-16x+16)+4x-8-8\\=8x^2+(-32x+4x)+(32-8-8)\\=8x^2-28x+16

What is the solution to 2x+12=5x-9
Wittaler [7]
So 2x+12=5x-9
you want all of the unknowns on one side and all of  the known values on the other or
subtract 2x from both sides
12=3x-9
add 9 to both sides
21=3x
divide both sides by 3
7=x
