Total questions = 50
total points = 100 ........because every exam has a total of 100 points.

total points per each question = 100 / 50
                                                 = 2

She was penalized two points for each wrong answer.

I'm really not sure how to go about solving this algebraic equation, please help! .513 = (2x)^2 / (.05-x)
LiRa [457]
Let's set it up like this:
0.513=\frac{\left(2x\right)^2}{\left(0.05-x\right)}
Multiply both sides by 0.05-x
0.513\left(0.05-x\right)=\frac{\left(2x\right)^2}{0.05-x}\left(0.05-x\right)
0.513\left(0.05-x\right)=4x^2
We are then going to use the distributive property. Since we also know that the opposite of an number that is squared is the square root, we can also apply that. We would be left with something like this:
x=-\frac{0.513+\sqrt{0.673569}}{8},\:x=\frac{\sqrt{0.673569}-0.513}{8}
The variable x can be both positive or negative.
We have found successfully our answer.

Let me know if you have any questions regarding this problem!
Thanks!

One afternoon 10 inches of falls in 1 1/4 hours.At this rate how many inches of snow will fall in 1 hour
saul85 [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of snowfall can be computed as inches of snow per hour.

rate = 10 inches / (1.25 hours).

The denominator is the improper fraction 5/4. To divide by 5/4, you multiply numerator by 4/5.

4/5 of 10 is 8; therefore the rate is 8 inches/hour
