Ok so in order to do this, you have to set up an equation. Let's make a=the score of the first test and b=the score of the second test. (You can choose different variables, it doesn't matter.) It says the sum of the two equals 170. So, a+b=170. It also says that the score of the first was 6 less than the second. This can be shown as a=b-6. Now you can plug this in for a in your original equation. It will look like:

(b-6)+b=170

You can solve for b.

2b-6=170
2b=176
b=88

Since you want a, plug into either equation for b. I'll use the second one.

a=88-6

So, a=82

The perimeter of a square room is 52 meters. What is the cost of tiling it at $5 per square meter?
Ludmilka [50]
First we have to find the area. To do that, we first have to find the side lengths of the square. Since a square has all four sides same length, we can find this by dividing: 52/4 = 13

Now we'll find the area in square meters: 13 * 13 = 169
So the area is 169 square meters.
So to find out how much that will cost, we will multiply the number of square meters by the amount it cost per square meter: 169 * $5 = $845

So it will cost $845

What is the probability that from a normal 52 card deck, you randomly draw a 5, and then without replacement, you select a Queen
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

1 / 663

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the total number of ways you can pick 2 cards from the deck. This is 52 * 51 = 2652 because there are 52 cards available for your first pick, and after you pick one, you'll have 51 left for your second pick.

There are 4 5's  (one for every suite) and only 1 Queen of Hearts in a deck of cards. Therefore, the total number of successful outcomes will be 4 * 1 = 4.

The probability of picking a 5 and then a Queen of Hearts is 4 / 2652 =

1 / 663. Hope this helps!
