Answer:

Mr. Martin’s math test, which is worth 100 points, has 35 problems. Each problem is worth either 5 points or 2 points.

Let x = the number of questions worth 5 points.

Let y = the number of questions worth 2 points.

x + y = 35,

5x + 2y = 100

How many problems of each point value are on the test?

10 problems worth 5 points and 25 problems worth 2 points

15 problems worth 5 points and 20 problems worth 2 points

20 problems worth 5 points and 15 problems worth 2 points

25 problems worth 5 points and 10 problems worth 2 points

Answer:

(a) 1/2

(b) 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is given by number of possible outcomes ÷ number of total outcomes

(a) Number of possible outcomes = 5 questions, number of total outcomes = 10 questions

Probability (I answer all 5 problems correctly) = 5/10 = 1/2

(b) Probability (I answer at least 4 of the problems correctly) means I either answer 4 of the problems or all 5 problems correctly = 4/10 + 5/10 = 9/10

50 POINTS!! Geometry!!
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

since RS || VU   ( parallel to )   then the angle V is equal to ∠ VRS , also we are given that ∠VRT = 71°  so subtract  ∠VRT from ∠VRS

103° - 71° = 32°

so ∠TRS = 32°

next find ∠U,  we know that ∠U + ∠VRT= 180°  ( b/c they are supplementary )

we are also told that  ∠VRT = 71°

∠U = 180 - 71

∠U = 109°
