Let x represent Holly's score on 7th math quiz.

We have been given that the mean of Holly's first six math quiz scores was 75%. This means that the average on 1st 6 math quizzes is 75.

To find the total scores on 1st 6 math quizzes, we will multiply 75 by 6 that is 75\times 6 =450.

We will use average formula to find test scores on 7th math quiz.

\text{Average of 7 math quizzes}=\frac{\text{Sum of scores on 7 math quizzes}}{\text{7 quizzes}}

77=\frac{x+450}{7}

Let us solve for x.

77\cdot 7=\frac{x+450}{7}\cdot 7

539=x+450

x+450=539

x+450-450=539-450

x=89

Therefore, Molly's score on the 7th math quiz was 89.

Natalka [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 12.5 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total points = 168

Points scored in the regular season = 147

Percent of points scored in the playoff game = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the points scored in the playoff game

  Points in playoff game = 168 - 147

                                          = 21

2.- Calculate the percent of points scored in the playoff game using proportions

                      168 points -------------------- 100%

                        21 points --------------------- x

                        x = (21 x 100) / 168

                        x = 2100 / 168

                        x = 12.5 %

Suppose xy=−4 and dy/dt=−3. Find dx/dt when x=−1.
user100 [1]
When x=-1: \quad (-1)y=-4\qquad\to\qquad y=4\)

Ok that gives us a little more information.
If we implicitly differentiate with respect to t, from the very start, then we can apply our product rule, ya?

x'y+xy'=0

The right side is zero, derivative of a constant is zero.
Where x' is dx/dt and y' is dy/dt.

From here, plug in all the stuff you know:
y' = -3
x = -1
y = 4

and solve for x'.

Hope that helps!

WILL MARK BRIANLIEST!
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

(4, - 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x + y = 2 → (1)

x - y = 6 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term will eliminate the term in y, that is

(x + x) + (y - y) = (2 + 6)

2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4

Substitute x = 4 in either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Substituting in (1)

4 + y = 2 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y = - 2

Solution is (4, - 2 )
