Answer:

Tahiya attempted 3 incorrect answers.

Helmin attempted 11 incorrect answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct = +4

Incorrect = -3

1) Tahiya got 12 correct answers and scored a 40, the number of incorrect answers was:

4*12-3I=40\\I=\frac{8}{3}\\I=2.67

2) Helmin got 5 correct answers and scored a -14, the number of incorrect answers was:

4*5-3I=-14\\I=\frac{34}{3}\\I=11.33

In both cases the number of incorrect answers obtained is a fraction, which means that either the data provided is inaccurate, or that the scores obtained by the students are approximate. Let's round the number of incorrect answers to the nearest whole answer.

Tahiya attempted 3 incorrect answers.

Helmin attempted 11 incorrect answers.

NEED HELP 10 POINTS
leonid [27]

48.8 megabytes. When the download is 17.5% complete, have been downloaded 48.8 megabytes.

The key to solve this problem is using the rule of three.

If 279Mb -------------> 100%

      x      <-------------   17.5%

x = [(279 megabytes)(17.5)]/100

x = 48.825 megabytes

Round to the nearest tenth 48.8 megabytes.

Does anyone know how to answer this question I'm having a lot of trouble with it?
Helen [10]

Answer:

h = \frac{2A}{(b+c)}

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the area of a trapezoid is,

Area (A) = \frac{1}{2}(b+c)h

Here b and c are the bases and 'h' is the height of the trapezoid.

2A = 2[\frac{1}{2}(b+c)h]

2A = (b + c)h

\frac{2A}{(b+c)}=h

Therefore, formula for the height of the trapezoid will be,

h = \frac{2A}{(b+c)}
