X = number of correct answers

Y = number of incorrect answers

School A has 174 points and school B has 102 points.

A = 174

B = 102

School A has the same number of correct and incorrect answers during the final round.

A = 174 + 10X - 6Y

School B gives no incorrect answers and the same number of correct answers as school A.

B = 102 + 10X

The contest ends with the two schools tied.

Score = 174 + 10X - 6Y = 102 + 10X

174 + 10X - 6Y = 102 + 10X

BC and DF are parallel lines. B is a point on AD and E is a point of DF. BD=BE. work out angle DBE give a reason. ITS ON MATHSWA
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

(Angle DBE) ∠DBE = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is crucial for us to be able to interpret plane geometry related question in order to solve them efficiently.

From the question given; we have analysed and come up with a diagrammatic expression and mathematical solution that clearly explains the question .

Given that

BC and DF are parallel lines.

B is a point on AD  

B is a point on AD

BD=BE

work out angle DBE and give a reason.

The diagram can be seen in the attached image below.

SInce ∠BD = ∠DE

Then triangle BDE is an isosceles triangle. In an isosceles triangle ; two sides are equal in length.

The sum of angles in an isosceles triangle = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

So;

∠BDE + ∠BED + ∠DBE = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

From the diagram; we will see that ∠ABC = ∠BDE  (corresponding angle)

Since ; ∠ABC is not given and which is needed to solve this question.

Let's just assume that ∠ABC is 65° , the main thing is to be able to interpret and understand the concept of the question.

Now;

Since

∠ABC = ∠BDE  

∠ABC  = 65°

∠BDE  = 65°

Again;

∠BDE + ∠BED + ∠DBE = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

∠BDE will be aso equal to  ∠BED ; this is because since the length of the opposite sides of the isosceles triangle are equal, their angles will also be equal.

Therefore;

65° + 65° + ∠DBE = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

130 ° + ∠DBE = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

∠DBE = 180° - 130°

∠DBE = 50°

John borrows $6.50 from his friends to pay for snacks, and $11.75 from his sister to go to the movies how much money does he nee
Nina [5.8K]

John has borrowed $6.50 from his friends and $11.75 from his sister. To find how much money he needs to repay you can just add up the amount of money he has borrowed.

Make an equation to solve for this, where x = amount of money John needs to repay. Make the amount of money John borrowed add up to x. Your equation should look like:

$6.50 + $11.75 = x

Combine like terms (add 6.50 and 11.75).

$18.25 = x

After solving the equation, you have figured out that John need to repay $18.25 in total.

The temperature has been going down at a constant rate.In 4 hours it went down 12 degrees.Which expression best shows the temper
fomenos

Answer:

<u>t = t₀ - 3n</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t be the temperature and t₀ be the initial temperature of the day

Let n be the number of hours after the initial temperature ( t₀) was registered

Let -3 be the constant of change of temperature ( In 4 hours it went down 12 degrees)

Now, let's write down the expression that shows the temperature change each hour, this way:

t = t₀ - 3n

After 2 hours

t = t₀ - 3 * 2 = t₀ - 6

After 5 hours

t = t₀ - 3 * 5 = t₀ - 15

After 3 hours and 30 minutes

t = t₀ - 3 * 3.5 = t₀ - 10.5

Can you guy's help me quick!
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

480,700 sets (first choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

If all 25 questions are different,

When order of selection counts:

P(25,7)

= 25!/(25-7)!

= 15511210043330985984000000/6402373705728000

= 2422728000

When order of selection does not count count:

C(25,7)

=25!/(7!*(25-7)!)

=15511210043330985984000000/(6402373705728000*5040)

= 480,700

Hope this helps, have a nice day.
