To answer this, set up a system of equations. What we know is that
5x + 2y = 100
And...
x+y=38
x represents the unknown number of 5 points questions
y represents the unknown number of 2 point questions
In my opinion the easiest way to solve this is to use substitution (that is when you find out the value of one variable, either x or y, and substitute that value as the variable).
So,
x+y=38
Subtract x from both sides
y=38-x
Now, plug (38-x) in as y in the other equation.
5x + 2(38-x) = 100
5x + 76-2x= 100
3x+76=100
3x=24
x=8
Now that you know that x=8, you can solve for y.
5x+2y=100
5(8)+2y=100
40+2y=100
2y=60

y=30
X=8
Y=30
There are 8 five point questions on the test and 30 two point questions on the test

hopefully this helps
(4,9) is in quarter I and (4,-9) is in quarter IV of the graph. (4,-9) is the point (4,9) reflected over the x-axis. they are similar bc both have 4 as their x coordinate.
48 points gained in those 3 days.
Subtract 220 with 48, then add 96. Last step would be subtracting 220 with the amount they have now in those 3 days to find how much points the stock market gained in those 3 days.
Subtract 220-48.It‘ll be 172.
Add 172 with 96. 172+96=268.
Subtract 268 with how much points the stock market had 3 days ago. 268-220. So it would be about 48 points gained.
