The best way to solve is by using elimination method.
20x = -58 - 2y
17x = -49 - 2y
Multiply second equation by -1
20x = -58 - 2y
-17x = 49 + 2y
Add equations.
3x = -9
Divide.
x = -3
Plug in -3 into one of the equations.
17(-3) = -49 - 2y
-51 = -49 - 2y
Add 49 to both sides.
-2 = -2y
Divide.
1 = y
So your solution is (-3, 1).
I hope this helps love! :)

Answer:

$\text{r}=5.5\text{c}-20$

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: On a $40$ question test students gain $6$ points for each correct answer and lose $0.5$ points on each incorrect answer. If everyone required to give an answer to each question.

TO FIND: the formulas that describes how a student's raw score, r, depends on the number of correct answers he or she provided, c.

SOLUTION:

Total number of incorrect questions $=40-\text{c}$

Total marks deducted due to incorrect question $=(40-\text{c})\times0.5=20-0.5\text{c}$

Total correct questions $=\text{c}$

Total marks scored $=6\text{c}$

Total raw marks $\text{r}=\text{total marks gained}-\text{total marks deducted}$

$\text{r}=6\text{c}-(20-0.5\text{c})$

$\text{r}=5.5\text{c}-20$

ormulas that describes how a student's raw score, r, depends on the number of correct answers he or she provided, c is $\text{r}=5.5\text{c}-20$
