Answer:
<u>There are 10 multiple-choice questions and 15 short-answer questions in the test</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
Test worth 80 points
Multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points
Short-answer questions are worth 4 points
Multiple-choice questions + Short-answer questions = 25
2. How many multiple-choice questions are there?
Let's solve this problem, this way:
m = Multiple-choice questions
s = Short-answer questions
Our equations system is:
m + s = 25
2m + 4s = 80
Solving for m in the 1st equation:
m + s = 25
m = 25 - s
Substituting m in the 2nd equation and solving for s:
2m + 4s = 80
2 * ( 25 - s) + 4s = 80
50 - 2s + 4s = 80
2s = 80 - 50
2s = 30
<u>s = 30/2 = 15</u>
Substituting s in the 1st equation and solving for m:
m = 25 - 15
<u>m = 10 </u>

Answer:
2. Cecilia uses 3 cups of flour for 36 cookies
4. Cecilia is making 3/4 of the original recipe
Step-by-step explanation:
Recipe for 48 cookies
Flour = 4 cups
Sugar = 1 1/3 cups
Recipe for 36 cookies
48 cookies : 36 cookies
= 4 : 3
Flour used in 36 cookies = x cups
Flour used in 48 cookies = 4 cups
4 cups : x cups
4 : 3 = 4 : x
4/3 = 4/x
4*x = 3*4
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3 cups
Sugar = 1 1/3 cups
Sugar used in 36 cookies = y cups
Sugar used in 48 cookies = 1 1/3 cups
4 : 3 = 1 1/3 : y
4/3 = 4/3 ÷ y
4/3 = 4/3 × 1/y
4/3 = 4/3y
4*3y = 3*3
12y = 9
y = 9/12
= 3/4
y = 3/4
The true statement are:
2. Cecilia uses 3 cups of flour for 36 cookies
4. Cecilia is making 3/4 of the original recipe
