Answer: she must complete 4 levels to have a point fewer than 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Starting point = 100 points
Passing a level = - 8 points
Catching a flower = - 3 points
Suppose Tina catches 6 flowers per level
Number of levels she must complete to have fewer Than 20 points
Total number of points lost per level:
Catching 6 flowers = -(6 × 3)
Passing the level = - 8
= - 18 + - 8 = - 26 points
Number of levels she must complete to have < 20
Let number of levels = y
Starting points - (26 × number of levels) < 20
100 - (26y) < 20
100 - 26y < 20
-26y < 20 - 100
-26y < - 80
y > 80/26
y > 3.07
Hence she must complete 4 levels to have a point fewer than 20
I think the trick is to add the two middle terms together. (And the 2 end terms).
8 - 12x
The variable is x. The coefficient is - 12.
8 is a constant.
The coefficient always goes with a variable.
3x^2 + 2x + 5
Nothing can be combined. The leading coefficient is 3 (which goes with the greatest power of the variable x^2 in this case) and the other coefficient is 2. 5 is a constant.
The multiples of 44 are 44, 88, 132, 176, 220, and so on. Each number that comes after increases by 44.
