Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

-1 = -⅝ c + 9

The score on a trivia game is obtained by subtracting the number of incorrect answers from twice the number of correct answers.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer: the player answered 30 questions correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of questions that the player answered correctly.

Let y represent the number of questions that the player answered incorrectly.

The number of questions that the player answered is 40. It means that

x + y = 40- - - - - - - - - - -1

The score on the trivia game is obtained by subtracting the number of incorrect answers from twice the number of correct answers. If the player obtained a score of 50, It means that

2x - y = 50

y = 2x - 50

Substituting y = 2x - 50 into equation 1, it becomes

x + 2x - 50 = 40

3x - 50 = 40

3x = 40 + 50 = 90

x = 90/3

x = 30

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:  0.31

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A denotes the event that the students report drinking alcohol and B denotes the students report using some type of tobacco product .

Given : P(A) =0.84   ; P(B)=0.33    and        P(A∪B)=0.86

We know that P(A\cap B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cup B)

Then, the probability that the student both drunk alcohol and used tobacco in the past month is given by :-

 P(A\cap B)=0.84+0.33-0.86=0.31

Hence, the probability that the student both drunk alcohol and used tobacco in the past month = 0.31

For monthly membership, the cost must be less than $325. We can set up an inequality:-

100 + 30x < 325            where x = number of months of membership

Solving -

30x < 325-100 = 225

x < 225 / 30

x < 7.5 months

The answer is   7 months.
