4 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of questions = 20

Marks given for a correct answer = 4

Marks deducted for a wrong answer = 1

No. of questions attended by the candidate = a

No. of questions the candidate gets correct = c

No. of questions the candidate gets wrong = a - c

Marks obtained for correct answers = 4c

Marks deducted for wrong answers = 1 (a - c)

Total marks scored by the candidate =

Marks obtained for correct answers - Marks deducted for wrong answers

Total marks scored by the candidate = 4c - 1 (a - c)

= 4c - a + c

= 5c - a

A sequence is defined by the equation a1=50 and an=an-1+(-4) what is term a5?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

an=an-1+(-4)

a2 = a1 + (-4) = 50 - 4 = 46

a3 = a2 - 4 = 46 - 4 = 42

a4 = a3 - 4 = 42 - 4 = 38

a5 = a4 - 4 = 38 - 4 = 34

Find each missing measure.
Anni [7]

Answer:

m∠E= 37°

m∠F=37°

Step-by-step explanation:

Total angle value: 180°

180-106=74

The lengths are the same, so we can determine that the angles E and F are the same. So we divide 74 by 2

74/2= 37

m∠E= 37°

m∠F=37°

Hope this helps! Have a nice day :)
