Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of questions in the test is 20.

Total number of questions that Alyssa answered correctly is 16.

The percentage of questions that she answered correctly would be

16/20 × 100 = 80%

To get an A, she needs to answer 90% of the questions correctly. Let x represent the number of questions that she needs to answer correctly to get an A. Therefore,

x/20 × 100 = 90

100x = 20 × 90 = 1800

x = 1800/100 = 18

She would need to answer 18 questions correctly to get an A

Alyssa's friend Jessie answered three times more questions correct than incorrect. This means that for every 3 correct answers, she had 1 wrong answer. For 15 correct answers ,she would get 5 wrong answers. Therefore, she got fewer correct answers than Alyssa.

Her percentage is

15/20 × 100 = 75%

Alyssa got a higher percentage of the test questions correct.

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. She did not get an A because 16 out of 20 = 80%.

b.  She needed 18 correct answers to get an A.

c.  Jessie scored 3 * correct more than incorrect which means she answered 15 correctly and 5 incorrectly  = 75% correct.

So Alyssa got a higher percentage correct.

The triangular arrangement of numbers shown is known as Pascal's triangle. Use inductive reasoning to find the 6 missing numbers
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

1 5 10 10 5 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question has been attached as an image.

Looking at the triangle, we see a pattern. The first level we have 1, in the next level we have 1 1, the next evel we have 1 2 1, the next level we have 1 3 3 1 and so on. From here, we see that to get the numbers of the next level, we have to write 1 as the first number, then add 1 to the next number after it in the previous level to get the second number in the next level then add the second number of the previous level to the next number beside it to get the third number in the next level and so on until you get to the last number before 1 in the previous level, add that number to 1 to get the second to the last number in the next level and finally put 1 as the last number in the next level. Now, we have

1 4 6 4 1

1 5 10 10 5 1

And that is the required set of numbers.
