This is the answer not sure if you wanted it graph or not
The viewer mistakenly determined that one of the equations in the system should be 2 x + y = 28. Instead modifications should have been made before applying the equation.
<h3>What is an Equation ?</h3>
An equation is a mathematical statement formed when two algebraic expressions are equated using an equal sign.
Total Questions = 20
Total Points = 28
Correct Answers = +2 points
Incorrect Answers = -1 point
The viewer represents the correct answers with x and the incorrect ones with y.
x+y = 20
for every correct answers 2 points;
and for every incorrect answers, -1 point
This can be written as
2x-y = 28
The viewer's mistake is that; instead of subtracting total incorrect points from the correct points, the viewer added them together;
now
2x-y = 28
x+y = 20
On adding the equations
]3x = 48
x = 16
y = 4
This means that the contestant answered 16 questions correctly and 4 questions incorrectly
The viewer mistakenly determined that one of the equations in the system should be 2 x + y = 28.

Answer: When you combine like terms in a algebraic expression, you do not add the exponents! When you combine like terms in an equation, such as a^2 and 4a^2, you only combine the numbers, not the exponents. The exponent attached to the number stays the same. a^2 and 4a^2 would be 5a^2.
Answer:
10.8 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
First change everything to inches:
2.75 ft = 33 in
1.5 ft = 18 in
Volume of tank = lwh = (33)(18)(7) = 4158 in³
The tank is 40% full, so only 60% is need to fill it. To find 60%, multiply 4158 by 0.6 = 2494.8 in³
Now find out how much 2494.8 in³ is in gallons:
231 in³ = 1 gallon
1 in³ = 1/231 gallons
2494.8 = (1/231)(2494.8) gallons = 10.8 gallons
Answer:
192 inches because 16×12=192
