Answer:

7 wrong answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when you answer a question well, you earn 8 points and a bad one loses 5 points, this means that when you answer 1 good and 1 bad, there is a total of 3 points (8-5).

This means that when answering 5 good and 5 bad, in total it would be 3 * 5 points, that is to say 15 points, that is, it goes through 2 points. To subtract 2 points, you would have to answer 1 good and 2 bad, (8 - 2 * 5), which turns out to be -2 points.

In total there would be 6 questions right and 7 questions wrong, like this:

8 * 6 + 5 * 7 = 13

13 points, in 13 questions (6 correct + 7 incorrect)

The rest of the questions were not answered so that the score does not go up or down.

Which means you got 7 wrong answers.

I drove 380 miles using 14 gallons of gas. At this rate, how many gallons of gas would I need to drive 418 miles?
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

15.4 gallons .

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of gas used  = 380/14 = 27.14 gallons per gallon.

So for each gallon used  you drive 27.14 miles.

So number of gallons used when travelling 418 miles = 418/27.14

= 15.4 gallons .

Ellie, an office manager, needs to find a courier to deliver a package. The first courier she is considering charges a fee of $1
Ber [7]

Answer:

The weight of the package is 1 kilograms.

It will cost  $ 13 by both the couriers services.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of her package is x kilograms

Now, according to the question:

The charges of first Courier = $10 + $3(x)

and The charges of Second  Courier = $7 + $6(x)

Also, for x  kilograms, both the charges are equal

⇒ $10 + $3(x)   =  $7 + $6(x)

or, 10 + 3x =  7 + 6x

or, 10 -7 = 6x - 3x

⇒ 3x = 3, implies  x = 3/3 = 1

⇒ The weight of the package is 1 kilograms.

It will cost :  10 + 3(1) = $ 13  = 7 + 6(1) by both the couriers services.

3)A ball is kicked from a height of 2 feet off the ground, after 1 second the ball rea
MArishka [77]

Answer:

y = - 2x + (1/2 38) + 2   = y =  -2x + 19x + 2  at any second  and y = -2x^2 / 2  + 19/2 + 2/2 = <u>- x^2 + 19/2 + 2 </u>=  - x (4) + 19/2(4) + 1 = -4+ 38 + 1 = 35 seconds  

Step-by-step explanation:    We see that 38-2ft = 36ft and y intercept  = 2 and then -2x allows us to represent the starting point 2 as -2 (1) to allow a descend to our back to 0 for y  one we find y intercept we know - x^2  is our simplified equation and an input into this to find the static and slowed descend back to 0  if you keep inputting at 5 and 6 you see the equation speed up   Anyway at (4) substitute = 4 seconds we divide our simplified equation a = -x2 into  a b c and divide each by 2  before working out the<u> </u><u>decline</u> of the equation<u> (as equation still represents all ascending and descending) </u>for the 4th second as the height was <u>already said to be at its max at 38 feet see equation in answer to find 4 as substitute for x </u>
