Answer:

Number of true-false questions  =15

Number of multiple choice questions  =5

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of true-false questions  =x

Number of multiple choice questions  =y

Total number of question =x+y=20

Points for true-false questions = 4

Total points for true-false questions = 4\times x =4x

Points for multiple choice questions = 8

Total points for multiple choice questions = 8\times y =8y

Total points of the test = 4x+8y=100

We have 2 equations now:

(1) x+y=20

(2) 4x+8y=100

We need to solve the 2 equations to find x and y.

Dividing equation 2 by 4.

\frac{4x+8y}{4}=\frac{100}{4}

(2a) x+2y=25

Multiplying equation (2a) with (-1)

-1(x+2y)=25\times (-1)

(2b) -x-2y=-25

Adding equation (2a) with equation (1).

x+y=20

-x-2y=-25

-y=-5

y=5      [ Divided both sides by -1]

Substituting value of y in equation (1).

x+5=20

Subtracting both sides by 5.

x+5-5=20-5

x=15

∴x=15 \ and\ y=5

Number of true-false questions  =15

Number of multiple choice questions  =5

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

So, exist 18564 different possibilities.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the eighteen passengers get on an airport shuttle at the airport.  The shuttle has a route that includes six hotels, and passengers get off the shuttle at their hotel.

We calcuate how many different possibilities exist that eighteen passengers can choose six hotels. We get:

C_6^{18}=\frac{18!}{6!(18-6)!}=18564

So, exist 18564 different possibilities.
