Answer:

0.80A + 0.92B = 63 .....1

A + B = 75 ......2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A and B represent the total possible score in part A and B respectively;

Analysing each sentence of the question;

Sam scored 80% on Part A of a math test and 92% on part B of the math test. His total mark on the test was 63

80% of A + 92% of B = 63

0.80A + 0.92B = 63 ......1

The total possible marks for the test was 75;

A + B = 75 .....2

So, equation 1 and 2 provides a set of simultaneous equations that can be used to represent and solve the situation.

Solving the simultaneous equations, we will arrive at;

Part A = 50

Part B = 25

A tennis player keeps track of the number of successful first serves he makes. During the first 8 service points of a game, only
Andru [333]

Answer:

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

After n consecutive serves, his total number of serves is going to be n+8, since he has already served 8 times. In the best case, his number of successful first serves is n+2.

His percentage of succesful first serves is the division of the number of succesful first serves divided by the total number of serves. So

P = \frac{n+2}{n+8}

We want P = 0.60. So

0.6 = \frac{n+2}{n+8}

n+2 = 0.6*(n+8)

n + 2 = 0.6n + 4.8

n - 0.6n = 4.8 - 2

0.4n = 2.8

n = \frac{2.8}{0.4}

n = 7

He needs 7 more consecutive successful first serves to raise his first serve percentage to 60%.

Question 1
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

We will see that the perimeter of the rectangle is exactly 390 ft, so the statement is true.

<h3>Is the fence enough?</h3>

For a rectangle of length L and width W, the perimeter is given by:

P = 2*(L + W).

In this case, we know that:

L = 120 ft

W = 75 ft

Replacing that on the perimeter equation we get:

P = 2*(120 ft + 75  ft) = 390 ft

So the perimeter is exactly 390 ft, meaning that to put a fence around the parking lot the company will need at least 390 ft of fence.

So the statement is correct.
