Answer:

Test contains 15 multiple choice and 5 essay .

Option (B) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the multiple choice questions be x.

Let us assume that the essay questions be y.

As given

A test worth a total of 100 points contains multiple choice questions worth 3 points each and essay questions worth 11 points each.

Than the equations becomes

3x + 11y = 100

There are 20 questions on the test.

Than the equations becomes

x + y = 20

The two equations are

3x + 11y = 100 and x + y = 20

Multiply x + y = 20 by 3 and subtracted from 3x + 11y = 100

3x - 3x + 11y - 3y = 100 - 60

8y = 40

$y = \frac{40}{8}$

y = 5

put in the equation x + y = 20

x + 5 = 20

x = 20 - 5

x = 15

Therefore test contains 15 multiple choice and 5 essay .

Answer:

2. n = 11

4. g = -2

6. t = 21

8. n = 4

10. y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

2. 63 = -3(1 - 2n)

Dividing both the side by negative 3 we get

$-21=1-2n\\2n=1+21\\2n=22\\n=\frac{22}{2} \\\therefore n=11$

4. -g + 2(3 + g) = -4(g + 1)

First we will open the bracket by distributive property A( B +C) = AB + AC

$-g+2\times 3 + 2\times g = -4\times g + -4\times 1\\-g+6+ 2g=-4g-4\\\textrm{we will take all the g term the left side and the constant to the right side}\\4g-g+2g=-6-4\\5g=-10\\g=\frac{-10}{5}\\\therefore g=-2$

6.-3(t +5 ) + (4t + 2) = 8

Using distributive property A( B +C) = AB + AC we get

$-3\times t + -3\times 5 + 4t + 2=8\\-3t-15+ 4t + 2=8\\t=8+15-2\\t=21\\\therefore t=21\\$

8. -8 - n = -3(2n -4)

Using distributive property A( B +C) = AB + AC we get

$-8 - n = -3\times 2n - -3\times4\\-8-n=-6n+12\\\textrm{all the n terms to the left inside and the constant of the right-hand side}\\6n-n=8+12\\5n=20\\n=\frac{20}{5}\\ \therefore n= 4$

10. -4( 2 - y) + 3y = 3(y - 4)

Using distributive property A( B +C) = AB + AC we get

$-4\times 2 --4\times y + 3y = 3\times y -3\times 4\\-8+4y+3y =3y-12\\\textrm{all the y terms to the left side and the constant to the right side}\\4y+3y-3y=-12+8\\4y=-4\\y=\frac{-4}{4}\\ \therefore y=-1$
