The general expression is 130 x - 600 and total points scored by the player is 1220

A) Let the number of correctly answered questions be x.

∴ Number of incorrectly answered questions will be 20 - x.

+ 100 points is awarded for each question answered correctly while -30 points is awarded for each question answered incorrectly.

Thus, the general equation becomes

= 100x - (20 - x)(-30)

= 100x +30x - 600

= 130x - 600

Thus the general expression becomes 130 x - 600

B)  The player answers 14 questions correctly, thus x = 14

Substituting the value of x =14 in the general equation we get,

= 130(14) - 600

= 1820 - 600

= 1220.

Thus the total points scored by the player will be 1220

A human society has 73 dogs and cats to be adopted. the number of cats is 10 more than twice the number of dogs. Write a system
viktelen [127]
Total: 73
dogs: x
cats: 2x+10

2x+10+x=73
3x+10=73
3x=63
x=21

dogs: x
dogs: 21

cats: 2x+10
cats: 52

Check answer:
cats+dogs=73
52+21=73

There's no need for a system of linear equations if you were to solve a real life problem like this. In calculus, they don't give a rat about HOW you get your answer to an easy algebra 1 equation, as long as you used one of the correct methods and got the right answer.

Best of luck my friend. :)

In ΔLMN, \overline{LN}
Karolina [17]

Answer:

\bold{\angle NLM = 10^\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a ΔLMN.

Line LN is extended to point O.

such that:

\text{m}\angle MNO = (5x-13)^{\circ}

\text{m}\angle NLM = (x-4)^{\circ} and

\text{m}\angle LMN = (2x+19)^{\circ}

To find:

\text{m}\angle NLM=?

Solution:

Kindly refer to the attached image for the given triangle and dimensions of angles.

Let us recall the external angle property of a triangle:

The external angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of two opposite internal angles.

i.e.

\angle MNO = \angle NLM + \angle LMN\\\Rightarrow 5x-13 = x-4+2x+19\\\Rightarrow 5x-13 = 3x+15\\\Rightarrow 5x-3x = 13+15\\\Rightarrow 2x=28\\\Rightarrow x =14

Putting the value of x in \angle NLM.

\angle NLM=14-4 \\\Rightarrow \bold{\angle NLM = 10^\circ}

HALP PLEASE DO 6 AND 7 PLEASEEE
Harman [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6) Convert mixed fraction to improper fraction and then plugin the values in the formula.

l= 3\frac{1}{3} yard=\frac{10}{3}\\\\w = 1\frac{5}{9} yard=\frac{14}{9}\\\\h =2\frac{1}{4} yard=\frac{9}{4}\\\\Volume of wood shed = l * w *h\\\\= \frac{10}{3}*\frac{14}{9}*\frac{9}{4}\\\\= \frac{5}{3}*\frac{7}{1}*\frac{1}{1}\\\\=\frac{5*7}{3}\\\\=\frac{35}{3}\\\\=11\frac{2}{3} cubic yard

b) 10 cubic yard is less than 11 2/3 cubic yard. So, it will fit in the wood shed.

7) Right side rectangular prism:

l = 16 in

w = 5 in

h =  20 - 14 = 6 in

Volume 1 = 16 * 5 * 6 = 480 cubic inches

Left side rectangular prism:

l = 9 in

w = 5 in

h =14 in

Volume 2 = 9 * 5 * 14 = 630 cubic in

Volume of composite solid = 480 + 630 = 1110 cubic inches
