Answer:

Respondió mal 64 preguntas.

Step-by-step explanation:

De acuerdo a la información proporcionada puedes plantear las siguientes ecuaciones:

x+y=120 (1)

2x-0,5y=80 (2)

x es el número de preguntas correctas

y es el numero de preguntas incorrectas

Primero debes despejar "x" en (1):

x=120-y (3)

Después, debes reemplazar (3) en (2):

2(120-y)-0,5y=80

240-2y-0,5y=80

240-80=2,5y

160=2,5y

y=160/2,5

y=64

Ahora puedes reemplazar el valor de "y" en (3) para encontrar el valor de "x":

x=120-y

x=120-64

x=56

De acuerdo a esto, la respuesta es que el postulante respondió mal 64 preguntas.

Find the length of the missing side. <br><br> 1) 52 cm<br> 2) 42cm<br> 3) 25 cm<br> 4) 48 cm
padilas [110]

Answer:

52 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem to solve for missing sides in a right triangle.

20²+48²= missing side

20²+48²=2704

Take the square root of 2704 to get the missing side.

\sqrt{2704 } = 52
