Answer:

B. 15 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the two numbers

x - y = 8

x = y + 8

2x + 3y = 51

2y + 16 + 3y = 51

5y = 35

y = 7

x = 15

In a test, +3 marks are given for every correct answer and -1 are given for every incorrect answer (i) Sona scored +20 marks tho
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

10 incorrect answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct answer = +3

Incorrect answer = - 1

Mark scored = 20

Number of correct answers = 10

Let:

Incorrect answers = y

Hence, we can fashion out the expression for total score :

(Number of correct answers * score per Correct answer + number of incorrect * score per incorrect) = total score

(10 * 3) + (y * - 1) = 20

30 - y = 20

-y = 20 - 30

-y = - 10

y = 10

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!​
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only 6 significant digits because in total there are 9 digits. We do not need the first 2 0's, so now we only have 7 digits. But the question is do we really need the last 0? The answer is no. No, you do not need the last 0 because we already know that it's .0049, and the 0 is just an extra.

So without all the insignificant 0's, the number would look like this:

13.0049
