Let x = number of problems on test
If he got 14 wrong, then x - 14 is the number correct.
\frac{x-14}{x} = .72

x - 14 = .72x
.28x - 14 = 0
.28x = 14
x = 50

The test consisted of 50 problems.

Is (3, 2) a solution of -8x-2y&lt;6?<br> Choose 1 answer:
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

-8x-2y<6 (I prefer to convert this into standard form y=mx+b)

-8x+8x-2y<8x+6

-2y/-2>8x+6/-2

y > -4x -3

2 > -4(3) - 3

2 > -12 - 3

2 > -15 True or Yes

Find the value of x and y using matrix method. 2x – 5y = 7 -2x + 4y = - 6
juin [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y) = (1, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The augmented matrix of coefficients for these equations is ...

  \left[\begin{array}{cc|c}2&-5&7\\-2&4&-6\end{array}\right]

The row-reduction function of your calculator can find the solution to the system of equations. The result of using that function is ...

  \left[\begin{array}{cc|c}1&0&1\\0&1&-1\end{array}\right]

This tells you the solution is (x, y) = (1, -1).

Please help me, I suck at math big time.

So first six sided polygon is called hexagon.
and the sum of all interior angles in a hexagon is 720°
so if you divide that by six. since it has six interior angles,
the angle of each interior angle will be 120°
as of exterior angle.
*note: the sum of the interior angle and its corresponding angle is always 180°
so if you subtract 120° from 180°
you have 60°
so all exterior angles are 60°

Find the smallest number that divides by 44 55 and 220 leaving remainder 5
galina1969 [7]
The numbers from which we are to determine the smallest number that can be divided leaving a remainder of 5 are 44, 55, and 220. We have to do the prime factorization of all the numbers to determine their least common multiple (LCM).

Factorization of 44:
   44 = 11 x 4 = 11 x 2 x 2

Factorization of 55:
  55 = 11 x 5

Factorization of 220:
  220 = 11 x 20 = 11 x 5 x 4

Since 220 has all the factors from 55 and 44 then, the least common multiple is 220. Add 5 to the LCM in order to determine the unknown.
