Answer:

y = 7 - x

Step-by-step explanation:

Francine and Cheryl received equal scores on a test made up of multiple choice questions and an essay. Francine got 34 multiple

kipiarov [429]

$34x + 14 = 30x + 22$
X is the amount the multiple choice question is worth. Both girls had the same test score so both are equal. Isolate X and that will be the value.

$34x -( 30x) + 14 = 22$
$4x = 22 - (14)$
$4x = 8$
$4x \div 4 = 8 \div 4$
x = 2

Plug 2 back in for x in the original equation to check and both girls recieved a 82%
