The viewer mistakenly determined that one of the equations in the system should be 2 x + y = 28. Instead modifications should have been made before applying the equation.
<h3>What is an Equation ?</h3>
An equation is a mathematical statement formed when two algebraic expressions are equated using an equal sign.
Total Questions = 20
Total Points = 28
Correct Answers = +2 points
Incorrect Answers = -1 point
The viewer represents the correct answers with x and the incorrect ones with y.
x+y = 20
for every correct answers 2 points;
and for every incorrect answers, -1 point
This can be written as
2x-y = 28
The viewer's mistake is that; instead of subtracting total incorrect points from the correct points, the viewer added them together;
now
2x-y = 28
x+y = 20
On adding the equations
]3x = 48
x = 16
y = 4
This means that the contestant answered 16 questions correctly and 4 questions incorrectly
The viewer mistakenly determined that one of the equations in the system should be 2 x + y = 28.

It is 30 degrees. Add 90 and 60 to get 180. Then subtract that from 180, since all triangles interior angles add to 180. You’ll get 30.
The two lines are parallel, therefor 90-28=internal angle=62. Using trigonometry, Cosine=a/h. Cos(62)=350/x. Rearrange to get 350/Cos(62) = 519.7(1dp)
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm im sorry I don’t know but I’m guessing u add the first and add second and subtract the 11 the first and 31 second then u use that and subtract and see if it negative or positive and mark it on the dot
Answer: The gradient of the line passing through is 3, thus the equation of the line becomes y=3x-4.
Step-by-step explanation: The parallel lines gradients that have similar gradients, so now we have the gradient of 3 because its similar to the other gradient. To get the equation of the line we use this equation: y=mx+c, we have to substitute the x and y to get the constant c.
5=3(3)+c
c= -4
y=3x+c
