Answer:
There were 40 2-point questions and 9 3-point questions.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this situation, write two equations. One for the number of questions and one for the number of points.
Let x be the number of 2 point questions.
Let y be the number of 5 point questions.
x + y = 49
Now since x are each worth 2 points, the total points is 2x.
And since y are each worth 5 points, the total points is 5y.
So 2x + 5y = 125. Substitute one of the equations into the other to solve for the variables.
x + y = 49 becomes x = 49 - y. Substitute it.
2(49-y) + 5y = 125
98 - 2y + 5y = 125
98 + 3y = 125
3y = 27
y = 9
Substitute y = 9 back into the equation x = 49 - y to find x.
x = 49 - 9
x = 40

Answer:
10th of June is their mother's birthday
kimberly remembers that her mother's birthday is after 6th but before 11th of june.
- after 6 is 7, before 11 is 10.
her sister sarah remembers that her mothers birthday is before 16th and after 9th of june.
- before 16 is 15, after 9 is 10.
10 are common on both cases
For answering multiple choice, you can do the following:
Observe the diagram, noting that one curve has positive slope, and the other has negative slope.
Looking at the equations,
if x and y are on the same side of the equal sign, (which is the case here), then
- coefficients of x and y have equal signs (both+, or both -) then the equation has negative slope.
- coefficients of x and y have different signs (+-, or -+), then the equation has positive slope.
We see the second system has both equations with positive slope, and the third system has both equations with negative slopes. They're out!
Next, we check the y-intercept of the first equation (by setting x=0),
first system: 0+2y=-10 => y-intercept=-5, slope=-1/2 Good
fourth system: 0-2y=-10 => y-intercept=+5 No good.
Finally, check the x-intercept of the second equation of the first system (by setting y=0)
first system: 3x-0=12 => x-intercept = 12/3=+4, slope = +3 good
So we conclude the first system is the correct answer.
