Answer:

Desiree answered 40 questions correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x =  number of questions answered correctly

y = number of questions unanswered

z = number of wrong answers unanswered

The system of equations can be expressed

x + y + z = 50

3*x  - 0.5*y -1*z = 110

Desiree did not leave any question unanswered

This means that the equations become

y = 0

x + z = 50

3*x -z = 110

If we add them together, we get

4x = 160

x = 40

z = 10

Find the gradient of the line segment between the points (-1,3) and (1,-2).
Rasek [7]

Answer:

The gradient of the line segment between the two points is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of the line segment between two points is also known as the slope,

We  can find this by using the formula; y₂ - y₁ /  x₂ - x₁

The points given to us are;(-1,2) and (-2,3).

This implies x₁ = -1  ,     y₁=2         x₂ =  -2        y₂= 3

We can now proceed to insert our values into the formula;

Gradient = y₂ - y₁ /  x₂ - x₁

               = 3 - 2  /  -2-(-1)

                = 1  /  -2 + 1

                 =1/-1

Gradient = -1

Therefore the gradient of the line segment between the two points is -1
