tudents are given 3 minutes for each multiple-choice question and 5 minutes for each free-response question on a test. There are

15 questions on the test, and students are given 51 minutes to take it. The system of equations shown can be used to find the number of multiple-choice questions, m, and the number of free-response questions, f, on the test. m + f = 15 3m + 5f = 51 How many multiple-choice questions are on the test? 3 5 12 14

In this question, they gave you the system of equations. You just need to use the two of them.

We want to find the m or the number of the multiple-choice questions. So we need to turn our last equation in the form of 'm's by translating the 'f's into 'm's.

m + f = 15
f = 15 - m

If we know the m form of f, we can convert the second equation and find the answer: 3m + 5f = 51

Plug in the m value of f: 3m + 5(15 - m) = 51

Distribute the 5: 3m + 75 - 5m = 51

Subtract -75 from both sides: 3m - 5m= 51 - 75

Combine like terms: - 2m = - 24

Divide both sides by -2: m = 12

So, we learned that the number of the multiple-choice questions is 12.

\frac{x^{2}+x-4}{x^{2}+3x+2}

Micah did not explain the last step correctly.  You cannot cross out a term from the numerator and denominator unless it is a factor.  In other words, x² needed to be multiplied and not added in order to cross it out.

A 2-column table has 4 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries negative 2, negative 1, 0, 1. The second column is label
JulijaS [17]

The growth factor of the exponential function represented by the table is 5.

The correct option is c.

<h3>What is the growth factor of the exponential function?</h3>

The growth factor of the exponential function is the ratio of the two consecutive terms (y-values).

The growth factor of the exponential function is given by;

\rm Growth\ factor=\dfrac{y(x_2)}{y(x_1)}\\\\

As per given, we have a table;

x         y

-2     0.004

-1       0.02

0       0.1

1        0.5

The value  \rm x_2 is -2 and \rm x_1 is -1.

Therefore,

the growth factor of the exponential function represented by the table would be :

\rm Growth\ factor=\dfrac{y(x_2)}{y(x_1)}\\\ \rm Growth\ factor=\dfrac{y(-1)}{y(-2)}\\\\\rm Growth\ factor=\dfrac{0.02}{0.004}\\\\ \rm Growth\ factor=5

Hence, the growth factor of the exponential function represented by the table is 5.
