First you need to divide 64 by 75 and then multiply by 100 which is 85.3% which then you need to find the average of the 2 which will be (85.3+x)/2=88 where x= the value of the second test.

Then you will need to isolate the x with the following steps:

  1. multiply each side by 2 making it 85.3+x=176
  2. Subtract 85.3 from each side
  3. this results in 90.7

Answer:

90.66.....%

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the second test score,

0.5( 64/75 + x ) = 0.88

solve for x

x = 0.88 * 2 - 64/75 = 0.906666....

which is equivalent to 90.6666... %

A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business. The paper will be
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

10 small boxes and 12 large boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of large boxes

Let y = number of small boxes

We are told that;

volume of each small box = 6 cubic feet

volume of each large box = 22 cubic feet.

Total volume = 324 ft³

Thus;

6x + 22y = 324 - - - (eq 1)

We are told that 22 boxes of paper were shipped.

Thus; x + y = 22 - - - (eq 2)

Making x the subject in eq 2 gives;

x = 22 - y

Put 22 - y for x in eq 1;

6(22 - y) + 22y = 324

132 - 6y + 22y = 324

16y = 324 - 132

16y = 192

y = 192/16

y = 12

So, x = 22 - 12 = 10

Solve for xxx. Enter the solutions from least to greatest. (x -7)(-4x -2)=0(x−7)(−4x−2)=0left parenthesis, x, minus, 7, right pa
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

-1/2, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

(x -7)(-4x -2)=0

This means that;

x - 7  = 0 and -4x - 2 = 0

x = 0+7 snd -4x = 2

x = 7 and x =  -2/4

x = 7 and -1/2

Hence the solution from least to greatest is -1/2, 7

A rectangular parking lot has a perimeter of 384 meters. The length of the parking lot is 36 meters less than the width. Find th
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The length and width of the parking lot is 78 meters and 114 meters respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Perimeter of the parking lot = 384\ m

Solution,

Let the width of the parking lot be x.

Then, according to question length = (x-36).

The perimeter of a rectangle is sum of all the sides of rectangle. Which is given by an expression;

perimeter=2\times(length+width)

Now substituting the values, we get;

384=2\times(x-36+x)\\\frac{384}{2}=(2x-36)\\192=2x-36\\192+36=2x\\2x=228\\x=\frac{228}{2}= 114

Width = 114\ m

Length = x-36=114-36=78\ m

Hence the length and width of the parking lot is 78 meters and 114 meters respectively.

What are the solutions to the system of equations? y=x2−7x+12y=−x+7
kap26 [50]

Answer:

x = 1, y = 6

or

x = 5, y = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x2−7x+12

y=−x+7

Substitute for y in the first equation:

- x + 7 = x^2 - 7x + 12

x^2 - 7x + x + 12 - 7 = 0

x^2 - 6x + 5 = 0

(x - 1)(x - 5) = 0

x = 1, 5.

When x = 1, y = -1 + 7 = 6.

when x = 5, y = -5+7 = 2.
