Use the following formula to find the answer to this question: 

S * Q + M * Q = P 

Representations: 

S = The amount of points for short-answer questions. 

M = The a<span>mount of points for m</span>ultiple-choice questions. 

Q = Number of questions for each of the type of questions that add up to the total number of questions on the test (20 questions). 

P = Total points on the test. 

Since there is a total of 50 points on the 20 question test, you would need to divide up the amount of questions there are for each of the type there are on the test, short-answer, and multiple-choice. 

3 * Q + 1 * Q = P 

Now find how many of the type of questions there are out of 20 questions on the test that would add up to the total number of points on the test. 

3 * Q + 1 * Q = 50 

(15 + 5 = 20 questions on the test, 15 and 5 can be used for the number of questions for each type of question on the test). 

3 * 15 + 1 * 5 = 50 

45 + 5 = 50 

50 = 50 

So, your total number of multiple choice questions are: 5. 
And, your total number of short answer questions are: 15. 

I would go with D. for your answer. I may be wrong.

mihalych1998 [28]

0.14 pounds (rounded; 0.135 unrounded); To calculate the % of something, divide it by 100 and multiply the result by the percentage you want to find.

0.0450 (=1%)

0.0450 x 3 = 0.135

28/29 and 30 plz short explanation thanks
iren2701 [21]

Integers are numbers like ...-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3... and so on. So, according to this definition, let's solve this problem:


28. We know that the product of three integers is -3. So, the statement states that we have three factor, so:


a.b.c = -3


The possible values of the factors are:

  • Factors are: 3, 1 and -1 in which case:

(3)(1)(-1) = -3

  • Factors are: -3, 1 and 1 in which case:

(-3)(1)(1) = -3


29. In this problem we know two nonzero integers, that is, they cannot be equal to zero. Thus, they must have different sign, that is, one of them must be positive and the other negative. For instance:


  • -9 and 2

(-9)(2) = -18, So -18 is less than -9 and 2


Another example:


  • 1 and -8

(1)(-8) = -8, So -8 is equal to -8 and -8 is less than 1.


30. The sign of the product of two integers with the same sign is positive, that is:


(+)(+) = (+) and

(-)(-) = (+)


So, the sign of the product of three integers with the same sign are two options:

  • <u>Option 1.</u> The three integers are positive in which case:

(+)(+)(+) = (+), So the sign of the product is positive


  • <u>Option 2.</u> The three integers are negative in which case:

(-)(-)(-) = (-), So the sign of the product is negative.


This option two gives us that result because:


(-)(-) = (+) and (+)(-) = (-)
