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.

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

B(if the option is 10^7 instead of  107

Step-by-step explanation:

no. of people in New York=19000000

no. of people in Vermont =626,000

difference in populations = 19000000-626,000 =18374000

therefore, the difference in populations is 18374000

(which can also be written as 1.8374x10^7)
