Answer:

Each question had 4 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the questions be x points each. As both Gretchen and Ezia received equal scores, we can write the equation as:

18x+19=15x+31   (Let the questions be x points each)

Solving for x;

18x-15x=31-19

=> 3x=12

Dividing both sides by 3;

x = 4

Hence, each question had 4 points.

My solution here is as follows:

The scores were the same, so 

18m+19 = 15m+31 

<span>Now solve for m, the # points for each multiple-choice question.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Have a nice day ahead and may God bless you always!

Solve for the missing angle. Round to the nearest hundredth.<br> 18<br> ?<br> 13<br> ? =<br> degrees
skad [1K]

Answer:

\theta \:=43.76^{\circ \:\:}

Step-by-step explanation:

The right triangle has the hypotenuse = 18

Let 'Ф' be the missing angle

we know that

cos Ф = adjacent/hypotenuse

Here,

  • The adjacent to Ф = 13
  • The hypotenuse = 18

so

cos Ф = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos\:\theta \:=\frac{13}{18}

\theta \:=\cos ^{-1}\left(\frac{13}{18}\right)

   =43.76^{\circ \:}

Therefore, the missing angle is:

\theta \:=43.76^{\circ \:\:}

If f ( x ) f(x) is an exponential function where f ( − 3.5 ) = 25 f(−3.5)=25 and f ( 6 ) = 33 f(6)=33, then find the value of f
gavmur [86]

Given:

f(x) is an exponential function.

f(-3.5)=25, f(6)=33

To find:

The value of f(6.5).

Solution:

Let the exponential function is

f(x)=ab^x         ...(i)

Where, a is the initial value and b is the growth factor.

We have, f(-3.5)=25. So, put x=-3.5 and f(x)=25 in (i).

25=ab^{-3.5}         ...(ii)

We have, f(6)=33. So, put x=6 and f(x)=33 in (i).

33=ab^{6}         ...(iii)

On dividing (iii) by (ii), we get

\dfrac{33}{25}=\dfrac{ab^{6}}{ab^{-3.5}}

1.32=b^{9.5}

(1.32)^{\frac{1}{9.5}}=b

1.0296556=b

b\approx 1.03

Putting b=1.03 in (iii), we get

33=a(1.03)^{6}

33=a(1.194)

\dfrac{33}{1.194}=a

a\approx 27.63

Putting a=27.63 and b=1.03 in (i), we get

f(x)=27.63(1.03)^x

Therefore, the required exponential function is f(x)=27.63(1.03)^x.

Write an equation for the following: The temperature is was 72° F and then dropped 2° per hour for the next eight hours.
murzikaleks [220]

so every hour it droped 2 degrees and it did this for eight hours you could times 2 by 8 and get 16 then minus it from 72
