Natalie was given a 30 question test. For each correct question she answered she earned 2 points. For every incorrect answer she

lost 1 point. Her final score was 54 points. The system of equations descibes the relationship between thw number of questions she answered correctly and the number of questions she answered incorrectly. Part of the solution of the equations is y=2. x+y=30 2x-y=54. The answers are the number of points Natalie lost from questions she answered incorrectly, the number of questions Natalie answered incorrectly, the number of points Natalie earned from questions she answered correctly, the number of questions Natalie answered correctly.

Answer:

2x-y=54

2x - 2 = 54

2x -2 + 2 = 54 + 2

2x = 56

2/2x = 56/2

x = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2

x+y=30

2x-y=54

2x - 2 = 54

2x -2 + 2 = 54 + 2

2x = 56

2/2x = 56/2

x = 28

Rosie washes clothes for two families the first family pays her $500 more per month than the second. Her total earning per month
disa [49]

Answer:

  • Family 1:  $1.850
  • Family 2: $1.350

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total monthly payment is 3200, so if we call Pa (family A`s payment) and Pb (Family B's payment) the payments:

  • Pa+Pb=3200
  • also, Pa = Pb+500

So if we replace Pa in the first ecuation:

  • Pb+500+Pb=3200
  • 2Pb= 3200-500
  • Pb=2700/2= $1.350

then Pa+Pb=3200 => Pa= 3200-1350= $1.850

Good Luck!

Simple math but I can't seem to understand it: x+y=2 becomes y=2-x, in order to find slope and y intercept y=mx+b The result bec
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we started off with the equation:

x+y=2

And we subtracted x from both sides to acquire:

y=2-x

Now, this is essentially slope-intercept form. Recall that the slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If we rearrange our equation:

y=2-x\\y=-x+2

And put some parentheses:

y=(-1)x+(2)

We can see that this is indeed slope-intercept form.

And we can see that m is -1 and b is 2.

In other words, the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is 2.

Hamburgers cost $2.50 and cheeseburgers cost $3.50 at a snack bar. Ben has sold no more than $30 worth of hamburgers and cheeseb
Irina18 [472]

Given 2.50x + 3.50y < 30.

Where x represent the number of hamburgers and y represent the number of cheeseburgers.

Now question is to find the maximum value of hamburgers Ben could have sold when he has sold 4 cheeseburgers.

So, first step is to plug in y=4 in the given inequality. So,

2.50x+3.50(4)<30

2.50x+14 <30

2.50x<30- 14 Subtracting 14 from each sides.

2.50x< 16

\frac{2.50x}{2.50} Dividing each sides by 2.50.

x<6.4

Now x being number of hamburgers must be an integer , so tha maximum value of x can be 6,

thus x = 6 hamburgers

So, the maximum value of hamburgers Ben could have sold is 6*2.5=$15

Hope this helps!!
