y = x + 3
as x increases by 1, y increases by 1 (Slope)
when x equals 0, y equals 3 (y-intercept)
The value in Canadian dollars of the money in Merl's bank account goes down because it takes .14 more Yuan to make 1 Canadian dollar.
Answer:
x=65/14
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-10)/(x-4)=50/-6
-50/6=-25/3
(x-10)/(x-4)=-25/3
x-10=-25/3(x-4)
x-10=-25/3x+100/3
x-(-25/3x)=100/3+10
x+25/3x=130/3
28/3x=130/3
x=(130/3)/(28/3)
x=(130/3)(3/28)
x=130/28
x=65/14
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.
