Question really depends on the persons mindset wether he/she likes to be rich or a middle person.

$50-$1.1=$48.9
A. Alyssa did not get an A on the math test but rather a B- due to only getting 16 out of the 20 problems right. This can be found out by dividing the amount correct over the total amount of problems.
B. In order for Alyssa to get an A or 90% on her math test she would have had to get two more questions right to have a score of 18 out of 20.
C. In order to figure this question out you have to think that with every incorrect answer that Jessie answered she got three correct along with the one incorrect. By going with that information it can be figured that Jessie's score is 15 correct answers and 5 incorrect information if you go by the ratio 3:1 then go up tell the sides equal up to a total of 20 after being added. So Jessie's score again was 15 out of 20.
Let's say her speed was x miles/hour during the first 3 miles runThen, time = distance/speedt1 = 3/x eq1 In the next 4 miles run, her speed = x-1 miles/hourTime taken:t2 = 4/(x-1) eq2 Now, total time:t1 + t2 = 1 3/5 hourssubstitute t1 and t2 from eqs. 1 and 2 3/x + 4/(x-1) = 1 3/5=> 3/x + 4/(x-1) = 8/5
=> 3(x-1) + 4x = 8x(x-1)/5=> 35x - 15 = 8x2 - 8x=> 8x2 - 43x + 15 = 0=> (8x-3)*(x-5) = 0=> x = 3/8 or 5 miles/hourx can not be 3/8 miles/hour because in that case, the speed during 4 miles run would be 3/8-1 = negative numberi.e. speed during 3 miles segment = 5 miles/hourand speed during 4 miles segment = 5-1 = 4 miles/hour
