Mr. Martin’s math test which is worth 100 points has 29questions. Each problem is worth 2points or 5 points. X represents number

of 5point questions and y represents questions worth 2 points. X+y=29, 5x+2y=100 How many problems of each point value are on the test?

Answer:there are 14 5point problems and 15 2point problems on the test.

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents number of 5 point questions and y represents questions worth 2 points.

The total number of questions in the test is 29. It means that

x + y = 29

x = 29 - y

Mr. Martin’s math test is worth 100 points. It means that

5x + 2y = 100 - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 29 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5(29 - y) + 2y = 100

145 - 5y + 2y = 100

- 5y + 2y = 100 - 145

- 3y = - 45

y = - 45/-3

y = 15

x = 29 - y = 29 - 15

x = 14

What can be added to -1 so it can be a positive 1?
Tanzania [10]
So represent missing number with x
x means unknown so
x+-1=+1
adding a negative means subtraction
x-1=1
you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides
add 1 to both sides
x+1-1=1+1
x+0=2
x=2

the number is 2

A graph represents the feasible region for the system: y is less than or equal to 2x, x + y is greater than or equal to 45, and
atroni [7]
Notation. x  y means x is less than or equal to y. x y means x is greater than or equal to y. x < y means x is less than y. x > y means x is greater than y. The last two inequalities are called strict inequalities. Our focus will be on the nonstrict inequalities. Algebra of Inequalities Suppose x + 3 < 8. Addition works like for equations: x + 6 < 11 (added 3 to each side). Subtraction works like for equations: x + 2 < 7 (subtracted 4 from each side). Multiplication and division by positive numbers work like for equations: 2x + 12 < 22 =) x + 6 < 11 (each side is divided by 2 or multiplied by 1 2 ). 59 60 4. LINEAR PROGRAMMING Multiplication and division by negative numbers changes the direction of the inequality sign: 2x + 12 < 22 =) x 6 > 11 (each side is divided by -2 or multiplied by 1 2 ). Example. For 3x 4y and 24 there are 3 possibilities: 3x 4y = 24 3x 4y < 24 3x 4y > 24 4y = 3x + 24 4y < 3x + 24 4y > 3x + 24 y = 3 4x 6 y > 3 4x 6 y < 3 4x 6 The three solution sets above are disjoint (do not intersect or overlap), and their graphs fill up the plane. We are familiar with the graph of the linear equation. The graph of one inequality is all the points on one side of the line, the graph of the other all the points on the other side of the line. To determine which side for an inequality, choose a test point not on the line (such as (0, 0) if the line does not pass through the origin). Substitute this point into the linear inequality. For a true statement, the solution region is the side of the line that the test point is on; for a false statement, it is the other side.
