Answer:
Here is the graph of y is a function of x.
Answer:
rational function
Step-by-step explanation:
That would be a "rational function;" it's the "ratio" of two polynomial functions, with the understanding that the denominator may not be zero.
Answer:
There were 20 questions on the quiz
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are concerned with knowing the number of questions on a quiz, given that Deana had a certain percentage after scoring an amount of marks.
We proceed as follows;
Let the number of questions on the quiz be X.
Now, she got 85% by making 3 incorrect choices. This means the percentage of questions she got incorrectly would be 100-85 = 15%
what we are saying is that it is just 15% of her questions that were wrong.
This mathematically;
15% of x = 3
15/100 * x = 3
15x = 3 * 100
15x = 300
x = 300/15
x = 20
Answer:
21 and 22
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's work backward from that 81%: x/25 = 0.81 yields x = 20.25. Nominally, 20.25 / 25 = 0.81, but x must be an integer. Let's round 20.25 off to 20.
Thus, if Kalsom got 81%, it was a result of his having done 20 questions correctly.
81% corresponds to 20 questions correct;
82% to 20.5 questions correct, or, rounding up, to 21 questions correct;
83% to 20.75, or 21;
84% to 21 questions correct; this is the only result that makes sense (whole number of questions answered correctly)
85% to 21.25;
86% to 21.5;
87% to 21.75;
88% to 22 questions correct (this makes sense, unlike the last three)
89% to 22.25;
90% to 22.5;
91% to 22.75;
Assuming that the number of questions correct MUST be integer, then the possible number correct are 21 and 22, corresponding to 84% and 88% respectively.
