Answer:

She must make a score of 42 in the final exam to obtain an average of 80.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Let x be the score of the final exam, the equation will be as follows (remember that the score of the final counts double):

(82 + 79 + 75 + 2x)/4 = 80

Let´s solve the equation for x multiplying each side of the equation be 4:

82 + 79 +75 + 2x = 320

Substract 82, 79 and 75 to both sides of the equation:

2x = 320 - 82 - 79 -75

2x = 84

x = 84/2

x = 42

She must make a score of 42 in the final exam to obtain an average of 80.

Have a nice day!

Explain why x^2 = -81 does not have a solution.
Evgesh-ka [11]

Remember, the graph of a line represents every point that is a possible solution for the equation of that line. So when the graphs of two equations cross, the point of intersection lies on both lines, meaning that it is a possible solution for both equations. When the graphs of two equations never touch, there are no shared points and there are no possible solutions for the system. When the graphs of two equations lie on top of one another, they share all their points and every one is a possible solution.
