Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation in the directions (100-2x=84), we can find out how many questions Trevor got wrong on his Science test. First, we need to subtract 100-84=16 to find out how many points he lost. Trevor lost 16 points.  Now we can divide 16/2=8, to find out how many questions he got wrong. Trevor got 8 questions wrong on his test.

Hope this helps!

Determine what type of model best fits the given situation: Farmer Joe has 1,000 bushels of corn to sell. Presently the market p
mart [117]

Answer:

The correct option is;

C. Quadratic

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The quantity of corn Farmer Joe has to sell = 1,000 bushels

The present market price for corn = $5.00 a bushel

The amount by which he expects the market price to rise per week =$0.15

The number of bushels lost to spoilage per week = 10

Therefore, we have;

The value of the corn = Amount of corn left × Price of corn

The price of the corn per bushel with time = 5 + 0.15×t

The amount of corn left = 1000 - 10×t

Where;

t = Time in minutes

Therefore, the total value of corn = (1000 - 10×t)×(5 + 0.15×t) = -1.5·t²+100·t+5000 which is a quadratic model.

Therefore, the correct option is a quadratic model.
