Ms. Lee wrote a test with 15 multiple choice short answer questions. The multiple choice questions x are worth 5 points and the

hram777 [196]

x + y = 15 and 5x + 10y = 100 are the system of equations that represent this situation

Solution:

Let "x" be the number of multiple choice questions

Let "y" be the number of short answer questions

Worth of 1 multiple choice questions = 5 points

Worth of 1 short answer question = 10 points

Ms. Lee wrote a test with 15 multiple choice short answer questions

Therefore,

number of multiple choice questions + number of short answer questions = 15

x + y = 15 -------- eqn 1

The maximum number of points possible on the test is 100

Therefore, we frame a equation as:

number of multiple choice questions x Worth of 1 multiple choice questions + number of short answer questions x Worth of 1 short answer question = 100

$x \times 5 + y \times 10=100$

5x + 10y = 100 ------- eqn 2

Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 are the system of equations that represent this situation

Answer:

∠3 would be 134° because it is alternate interior to ∠5

∠2 would be 46° because it is supplementary to ∠1

when 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number. Find the negative solution.

sveta [45]

When 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number, then the negative solution is -1

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Given that when 6 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 5 times the number

To find: negative solution

Let "a" be the unknown number

Let us analyse the given sentence

square of a number = $a^2$

6 is subtracted from the square of a number = $a^2 - 6$

5 times the number = $5 \times a$

So we can frame a equation as:

6 is subtracted from the square of a number = 5 times the number

$a^2 - 6 = 5 \times a\\\\a^2 -6 -5a = 0\\\\a^2 -5a -6 = 0$

Let us solve the above quadratic equation

For a quadratic equation $ax^2 + bx + c = 0$ where $a \neq 0$

$x=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4 a c}}{2 a}$

Here in this problem,

$a^2-5 a-6=0 \text { we have } a=1 \text { and } b=-5 \text { and } c=-6$

Substituting the values in above quadratic formula, we get

$\begin{array}{l}{a=\frac{-(-5) \pm \sqrt{(-5)^{2}-4(1)(-6)}}{2 \times 1}} \\\\ {a=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{25+16}}{2}=\frac{5 \pm \sqrt{49}}{2}} \\\\ {a=\frac{5 \pm 7}{2}}\end{array}$

We have two solutions for "a"

$\begin{array}{l}{a=\frac{5+7}{2} \text { and } a=\frac{5-7}{2}} \\\\ {a=\frac{12}{2} \text { and } a=\frac{-2}{2}}\end{array}$

We have asked negative solution. So a = -1

Thus the negative solution is -1
