Answer: there are 10 multiple choice questions and 15 short-answer questions
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of multiple choice questions in the test.
Let y represent the number of short-answer questions in the test.
If the test has 25 questions, it means that
x + y = 25
Multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points, and short-answer questions are worth 4 points. The test is worth a total of 80 points. It means that
2x + 4y = 80 - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 25 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2(25 - y) + 4y = 80
50 - 2y + 4y = 80
- 2y + 4y = 80 - 50
2y = 30
y = 30/2 = 15
x = 25 - y = 25 - 15 = 10
A. The number of multiple-choice questions plus the number of short-answer questions is 25.

Answer: She cycles 25% of the time
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, Sally walks 15% of the time.
She drives 3/5 of the time.
We then convert 3/5 to percentage.
Converting to percentage means multiplying by a factor of 100.
Hence, Sally drives 3/5*100 = 60% of the time.
If Sally walks 15% of the time and drives 60% of the time, adding up the percentage time used by these two media of transportation will give us
60% + 15% = 75%
Hence if she cycles for the remainder of the time, expressing it as percentage would mean subtracting the time used in other means by 100%
Hence it will be 100% - 75% = 25%
I’m pretty sure you add 78+55= 133
180-133=47
so 9x+2=47
subtract 2 from 47 and itself
so 9x=45
divide 9 and 45 by 9
so x=5
