The general expression is 130 x - 600 and total points scored by the player is 1220
A) Let the number of correctly answered questions be x.
∴ Number of incorrectly answered questions will be 20 - x.
+ 100 points is awarded for each question answered correctly while -30 points is awarded for each question answered incorrectly.
Thus, the general equation becomes
= 100x - (20 - x)(-30)
= 100x +30x - 600
= 130x - 600
Thus the general expression becomes 130 x - 600
B) The player answers 14 questions correctly, thus x = 14
Substituting the value of x =14 in the general equation we get,
= 130(14) - 600
= 1820 - 600
= 1220.
Thus the total points scored by the player will be 1220

For the first month, the membership fee deducted = $15
So, -15(1) will represent this situation.
Similarly, for the second, third, fourth months, the expressions will be:
-15(2), -15(3), -15(4) and so on.
Hence, if t represents the number of months, then -15t will represent ash's art club membership being deducted every month for a year.
Answer:
7x−y=7 (x= 1 y/7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 28.8°
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
∠A = 5(∠B) + 7.2°
∠B = ∠B
Since they are on a straight line, they form a linear pair (sum = 180°)
∠A + ∠B = 180°
Use Substitution:
5(∠B) + 7.2° + ∠B = 180°
Add like terms:
6(∠B) + 7.2° = 180°
Subtract 7.2° from both sides:
6(∠B) = 172.8°
Divide both sides by 6:
∠B = 28.8°
