Answer and Explanations

ACT score percentile help colleges compare students with one another, rather than just looking at everyone’s score. The score range is between 1 and 36, the highest score that one can receive on the ACT is 36. Moreover, 36 is the perfect score.

The maximum ACT score (36) is that in 2018, only 3,741 students (out of millions of test-takers) scored a perfect 36 on the ACT. The 99th percentile of test-takers includes those who earn 35 or 34 on the ACT. We can miss up to five questions on the ACT and still earn a 36. That is a reason why the maximum ACT score is 36 at the 100th percentile.

The ACT score report will provide more information about test-taking experience in the form of sub score. The higher the score, you will get into the colleges of your choice.

4x - (-6) what’s the answer

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

4x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If i remember correctly, two minuses make a positive, so -(-6) would turn into +6. I dont think that you can add a number with a variable to a regualar number so the answer is as simplified as it can get. If that one is wrong, try 10x. Hope this helps!

Find the y value for the point that divides the line segment CD into a ratio of 4:1.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

We also drew a graph with 2 examples.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have the line segment CD, we can divide it by 4: 1 as follows:

If point C has the coordinates (x1, z1) and point D has the coordinates (x2, z2), we calculate coordinate the points Y as follows:

y1 = (x2-x1) · 4/5

y2 = (z2-z1) · 4/5

In this way we have obtained the point Y with the coordinates (y1, y2), and the point Y divides the line segment CD by 4:1.
