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

Rectangle GHIJ is dilated to be a smaller shape. What is the name of the image after the dilation?
prisoha [69]
To know whether the shape is the pre-image or the resulting shape, we need to look at its name.

In this instance, the name of the pre-image is GHIJ.

The resulting name of the shape would be G'H'I'J'.

An apostrophe is placed after every letter to signify that it is the resulting coordinate of the original.

Q # 25 find the distance between the two points
iren [92.7K]
To find the distance between the points given in the figure of the problem above, you must apply the formula for calculate the distace between two points, which is shown below:
 d=√[(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2]
 When you substitute the values, you obtain:
 d=√[(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2]
 d=√[(-1-2)^2+(-5-5)^2]
 d=10.4
 The answer is:10.4
