Can smart people answer.??????? Corinna is taking a test in which short-answer questions are worth 10 points each and essay questions are worth 15 points each. She estimates that it takes 3 min to answer each short- answer question and 6 min to answer each essay question. The total time allowed is 60 min, and no more than 16 questions can be answered. Assuming that all her answers are correct, how many questions of each type should Corinna answer in order to get the best score?
X=-9.
explanation: You want to set the equation equal to 0, so 0=2/3x+6. Subtract 6 from each side... -6=2/3x. then multiply each side by the reciprocal of 2/3, or 3/2. The equation is now 6(3/2) = 2/3x(3/2). Knowing that the reciprocal of any number times itself =1, we can conclude that -18/2, or -9=1x.
8x2=16 and 11x2=22 all you have to do is add 16+22 and that gives you 38 i hope this helped
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
You ran a 10 kilometer race in 56 minutes (good job!). To find how much you ran in 1 minute, you simply divide by 56.
10/56=0.178571428
Therefore, you ran around 0.18 km/minute.
Have a wonderful day! :D
