A perfect trinomial, if we begin by a binomial is defined as: the square of the first term, plus (or minus) the double product of the first term times the second, plus the square of the second term:
(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
We are given:
y^2 + 5y + x
we need to find x, so x is defined as a squared quantity, which is equal to the second term coefficient (5) divided by 2, and that number squared, that is:
(5/2)^2 = 25/4
that is the third term for the trinomial to be perfect.

Your math test has 38 questions and is worth 200 points. This test consists of multiple-choice questions worth 4 points each and
Furkat [3]

Answer: the number of multiple-choice questions in the math test is 35 and the number of open-ended questions in the math test is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of multiple-choice questions in the math test.

Let y represent the number of open-ended questions in the math test.

The math test has 38 questions. It means that

x + y = 38

This test consists of multiple-choice questions worth 4 points each and open-ended questions worth 20 points each. The total number of points is 200. It means that

4x + 20y = 200 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 38 - y into equation 1, it becomes

4(38 - y) + 20y = 200

152 - 4y + 20y = 200

- 4y + 20y = 200 - 152

16y = 48

48/16

y = 3

Substituting y = 3 into x = 38 - y, it becomes

x = 38 - 3 = 35

Number of items sold by Shelley = 3 items.

Let us assume cost of each item sold by Shelley = $ x each.

Total cost of 3 items for Shelly sold = 3*x = 3x.

Number of items sold by Billy Bob = 4 items.

The cost of each item sold by Billy Bob = $2.25 less than the items that Shelley bought = $(x-2.25) each.

Total cost of 4 items for Billy Bob sold = 4*(x-2.25) = 4(x-2.25).

Both Shelley and Billy Bob paid the same amount of money. So, we can setup an equation now.

a) Total cost of 4 items for Billy Bob sold=Total cost of 3 items for Shelly sold.

4(x-2.25) = 3x

b) Solving equation for x now.

Distributing 4 over (x-2.25), we get

4x - 4*2.25 = 3x.

4x -9 = 3x.

Adding 9 on both sides, we get

4x -9+9 = 3x+9

4x =3x+9.

Subtracting 3x from both sides, we get

4x-3x =3x-3x+9.

x = 9.

c) Checking the solution of the equation by plugging x=9 in equation we got above.

4(x-2.25) = 3x  => 4(9-2.25)= 3*9

               => 4*6.75 = 27

               => 27 = 27.

We got left side = right side. So the solution x=9 is correct.

d) The cost of each item sold by Billy Bob = 9-2.25 = $6.75

Therefore, the cost of each item sold by Shelley is $9 and cost of each item sold by Billy Bob is $6.75.
