Answer: there were 40 questions on her math final.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total number of questions in the math test.

Mary got 85% correct on her math test. This means that the number of questions that she got right is

85/100 × x = 0.85 × x = 0.85x

This also means that the number of questions that she missed would be

x - 0.85x = 0.15x

Therefore, if Mary missed 6 questions, it means that

0.15x = 6

Dividing both sides of the equation by 0.15, it becomes

0.15x/0.15 = 6/0.15

x = 40

A library is open til' 5:00 P.M. On Wednesdays, the library closes 2 hours early. How many hours for a month is the library open
svet-max [94.6K]
So
if you assume that the month has 30 days and that the library opens at midnight, then
24 hours in a day
5 pm=12+5=17 hours
on wednessday=17-2=15 hours
wednessday=1/7 of week
so we find 1/7 of 30 which is 30/7=4 and 2/7
then subtract that from 30
30-4 and 2/7=25 and 5/7

ok so then we have
25 and 5/7 days is 17 hours and
4 and 2/7 days is 15 hours
so just multipy them and add

25 and 5/7 times 17=437.143 hours
4 and 2/7 days times 15 =64.2857
add

437.143+64.2856=501.429
so aprox 501.429

the real equation is  [(\frac{1}{7})(n)(15)]+[ (\frac{6}{7}) (n)(17)]=hours where n represents the number of days in the month

apros 501.429
