Question

Mr.Martin is giving a math test next period.The test,which is worth 100 points,has 29 problems. Each problem is worth either 5 points or 2 points . Write a system of equations that can be used to find how many problems of each point value are on the test. Let x be the number of questions worth 5 points and let y be the number of questions worth 2 points. How many problems of each point value are on the test?

Answer 1

Answer:

The second option

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=29

5x+2y=100

then y=29–x

since 5x+2y=100

then 5x+2(29–x)=100

then 5x+58–2x=100

then 3x+58=100

then 3x=100–58

then 3x=42

then x=42/3

then x=14

then y=29–14=15
