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.

Determine which point is the solution to the given system y=7x-26, y=4x-11
Art [367]

substitution
y = 7x-26 (1)

y = 4x-11 (2)

1⇒2

7x-26=4x-11

3x=15

x=5

y = 7(5)-26

y = 9

In a triangle, the measure of the first angle is twice the measure of the second angle. The measure of the third angle is 64 deg
Xelga [282]
Argument
Let the second angle = x
Let the first angle = 2x
Let the third angle = x + 64

Substitute and Solve
x + 2x + x + 64 = 180 Collect the like terms on the left.
4x + 64 = 180 Subtract 64 from both sides.
4x = 180 - 64
4x = 116 Divide by 4
x = 116 / 4
x = 29

Conclusion
x = 29
2x = 58
x + 64 = 93 I'm leaving you with the problem of checking this out.

Answer
The first angle = 58
The second angle = 29
The Third angle = 93
