There are 38 five point questions and 30 two points questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Worth of points in test = 250

Number of questions = 68

Let,

x represent the number of 5 points questions

y represent the number of 2 points question

According to given statement;

x+y=68          Eqn 1

5x+2y=250   Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2

2(x+y=68)\\2x+2y=136\ \ \ Eqn\ 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(5x+2y)-(2x+2y)=250-136\\5x+2y-2x-2y=114\\3x=114

Dividing both sides by 3

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{114}{3}\\x=38

Putting x=38 in Eqn 1

38+y=68\\y=68-38\\y=30

There are 38 five point questions and 30 two points questions.

Please, Help.<br>the answer isn't 30°

The <em>missing</em> angle of the <em>right</em> triangle ABC has a measure of 30°. (Correct answer: A)

<h3>How to find a missing angle by triangle properties</h3>

Triangles are <em>geometrical</em> figures formed by three sides and whose sum of <em>internal</em> angles equals 180°. There are two kind of triangles existing in this question: (i) <em>Right</em> triangles, (ii) <em>Isosceles</em> triangles.

<em>Right</em> triangles are triangles which one of its angles equals 90° and <em>isosceles</em> triangles are triangles which two of its sides have <em>equal</em> measures.

According to the statement, we know that triangle BQR is an <em>isosceles</em> triangle, whereas triangles ABC, ANB and NBC are <em>right</em> triangles. Based on the figure attached below, we have the following system of <em>linear</em> equations based on <em>right</em> triangles ABC and NBC:

<em>2 · x + 90 + θ = 180</em>   (1)

<em>(90 - x) + 90 + θ = 180</em>   (2)

By equalizing (1) and (2) we solve the system for <em>x</em>:

<em>2 · x = 90 - x</em>

<em>3 · x = 90</em>

<em>x = 30</em>

And by (1) we solve the system for <em>θ</em>:

<em>θ = 180 - 2 · x - 90</em>

<em>θ = 30</em>

<em />

The <em>missing</em> angle of the <em>right</em> triangle ABC has a measure of 30°. (Correct answer: A) \blacksquare

U need question problem 2 to solve problem 3
Sergio [31]

Answer:

You are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with 1 1/2. This can be made into an improper fraction which is 3/2

Now multiply both top and bottom of 3/2 by 5

(3*5)/(2 * 5) = 15 / 10

16/10 is just slightly bigger than 15/10

What is the format of this proof? Given: ∠ABC is a right angle, ∠DBC is a straight angle Prove: ∠ABD is a right angle
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Given : ∠ABC is a right angle, ∠D BC is a straight angle.

To prove :∠AB D is a right angle.

Proof: ∠ ABC = 90°[ Given]

    ∠ D BC= 180° [ D BC is a straight line]

now, ∠ AB D and ∠ AB C are adjacent angles forming linear pair.

∠ AB D +∠ AB C =180° [By linear pair axiom]

⇒∠ AB D + 90= 180°

⇒∠ AB D=180°-90°

⇒∠ AB D=90°

∠AB D is a right angle

Hence proved.
