Answer: She got 30 questions right and 6 questions wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of correct questions, y = Number of wrong questions

As Award for each correct answer = +3 points and Award for each wrong answer = -1 point.

Total score = 3x-1y

If Marjorie omitted 4 of the 40 questions, then she did 40-4=36 questions.

Now, x+y = 36 (1)

and 3x-y =84   (2)  (as she scored 84)

Adding (1) and (2), we get

4x = 120

Divide both sides by 4, we get

x= 30

y = 36-30=6

hence, she got 30 questions right and 6 questions wrong.

Help me please I need to do this
Blizzard [7]

Consider the attached tree.

You start from the root, and with each level you create a sub-branch for each of the choices you have.

So, the root has two children, white and multigrain bread.

Each of those children has three children, because you have three meat choices

Each of those children has two children, because you have two cheese choices.

Then, you identify all the sandwiches by choosing a leaf, and read the label that lead you there.

For example, leaf number 4 represents a sandwich with white bread, turkey and provolone.

A customer purchases 10 m dade co. florida 7.50% g.o. bonds at a 9.50 basis. how much interest will she collect each year? $75 $
crimeas [40]
In the value of bonds, the symbol "M" means "thousands.
Therefore, 10 M = 10,000$

So, the customer bought a coupon with 10,000$ and the expected annual interest is 7.5% of the coupon's value.

Calculating the value of interest is simple, just multiply the interest rate (7.5%) by the original value of the coupon to know how much interest she will collect each year.

Interest collected each year = (7.5 / 100) x 1000 = 750$
