Answer:
0.80A + 0.92B = 63 .....1
A + B = 75 ......2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A and B represent the total possible score in part A and B respectively;
Analysing each sentence of the question;
Sam scored 80% on Part A of a math test and 92% on part B of the math test. His total mark on the test was 63
80% of A + 92% of B = 63
0.80A + 0.92B = 63 ......1
The total possible marks for the test was 75;
A + B = 75 .....2
So, equation 1 and 2 provides a set of simultaneous equations that can be used to represent and solve the situation.
Solving the simultaneous equations, we will arrive at;
Part A = 50
Part B = 25
Answer:
3+(k+1)1.5= 3
Step-by-step explanation: you do 1.5 * k and 1 and get 1.5k + 1.5
then you go 3 +1.5k+1.5=?
1.5k+4.5=?
-1.5k -1.5k
4.5=-1.5
_ . _
-1.5 . -1.5
k=3
Answer: See below
Step-by-step explanation:
number of yellow pieces/number of blue pieces
= 14/24
= 7/12 --> 7 to 12 --> 7:12
The ratio that represents the number of yellow pieces to the total number of pieces is part-to-whole
number of yellow pieces/total number of pieces
= 14/100
= 7/50 --> 7 to 50 --> 7:50
The ratio that represents the number of blue pieces to the total number of pieces is part-to-whole
= 24/100
= 6/25 --> 6 to 25 --> 6:25
