A science test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. If x is

the number of 3-point questions and y is the number of 5-point questions, the system shown represents this situation.
x + y = 24
3x + 5y = 100
What does the solution of this system indicate about the questions on the test?

X + y = 24....multiply by -3
3x + 5y = 100
---------------
-3x - 3y = - 72 (result of multiplying by -3)
3x + 5y = 100
--------------add
2y = 28
y = 28/2
y = 14

x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24
x = 24 - 14
x = 10

solution is (10,14)...and x represents 3 point q's and y represents 5 point q's......so this tells me there are 10 three point q's and 14 five point q's.

Inessa05 [86]
43.85 + (2*2.70) - (2*1.10) - 4.45 = $42.60

Or more simply 43.85 + 2.70 + 2.70 - 1.10 - 1.10 - 4.45 = $42.60

Tara has two standard, six-sided dice. If she rolls them 36 times, how many times should she expect a sum less than 5 to show up
andreyandreev [35.5K]
There are six sides on each die. For each possible score on Die 1, there are six possible scores on Die 2. So the number of possible combinations is 6*6 = 36. 
<span>It follows that if the dice are thrown 36 times, you would expect each combination to come up once. </span>

<span>We therefore simply need to know how many combinations add up to less than 5. (I've interpreted this as not including a total of 5 itself). </span>
<span>These combinations are: 1 and 1, 2 and 1, 1 and 2, 2 and 2, 3 and 1, and 1 and 3 ---> six combinations out of 36. </span>

<span>So you'd expect a sum less than 5 six times. </span>
