Answer:

<em><u>5</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>points</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>question</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>8</u></em>

<em><u>and</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>2</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>po</u></em><em><u>ints</u></em><em><u> questions</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>3</u></em><em><u>0</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>!</u></em><em><u>!</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of 5 points questions be x and number of the 2 points questions be y !!

Given :- The paper has 38 problems

i.e,

number of 5 points Q + number of 2point Q = 38

=> x + y = 38

=> x = 38 - y .... ( i )

And , The test worth 100 pts :-

There must be x number of Questions which carry 5 points and there must y number of questions which carries 2 points ( as assume above )

so, 5x + 2y = 100 .... ( ii )

Putting value of the x in ( ii )

5 ( 38 - y ) + 2y = 100

190 - 5y + 2y = 100

- 3y = - 90

y = 30

Putting value of y in ( i )

x = 38 - y

x = 38 - 30

x = 8

So, the Number of 5points Question is

x = 8

and , the number of 2 points questions is y = 30 !!

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

angles 2 and 4 are supplementary so they add up to 180

2x + 10 + 4x + 80 = 180

6x + 90 = 180

6x = 90

x = 15

Spam e-mail containing a virus is sent to 1000 e-mail addresses. After 1 second, a recipient machine broadcasts 10 new spam e-ma
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Answer explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

Spam e-mail containing a virus is sent to 1000 e-mail addresses. After 1 second, a recipient machine broadcasts 10 new spam e-mails containing the same virus, after which the virus disables itself on that machine. (1) Write a recursive definition (i.e. recurrence relation) to show how many spam emails will be sent out after n seconds. (2) Solve the recurrence relation. (3) How many e-mails are sent at the end of 20 seconds

1.START T=0.....

1000 EMAILS SENT AND RECEIVED BY 1000 M/CS.

T=1.....

EACH OF THE M/C SENDS 10 NEW MAILS ....

.................................

LET M[N] BE THE NUMBER OF MAILS SENT OUT AFTER N SECONDS.

SO , EACH OF THESE M/CS WILL SEND 10 MAILS IN NEXT 1 SECOND.

HENCE NUMBER OF MAILS SENT IN N+1 SECONDS=M[N+1]=

M[N+1]=10*M[N].......................1

THIS IS THE RECURRENCE RELATION.....

2.SOLUTION .....

M[N+1]=10M[N]=10*10M[N-1]=10*10*10M[N-2]=........

M(N+1)=[10^1][M(N)]=[10^2][M(N-1)]=[10^3][M(N-2)]=..........=[10^N][M(1)]=[10^(N+1)][M(0)]

M[N+1]=[10^(N+1)][1000]=[10^(N+1)][10^3]=[10^(N+4)]......................................2

THIS IS THE NUMBER OF MAILS SENT AFTER N+1 SECONDS .....OR ....

M[N]=[10^(N+3)].............................................3

..................IS THE SOLUTION FOR NUMBER OF MAILS SENT AFTER N SECONDS.....

3.AFTER N=20 SECONDS , THE ANSWER IS ....

M[20]=10^(20+3)=10^23

Can a ray be bisected?
34kurt

Such a ray that divides an angle into two equal angles is called an angle bisector.

Likewise, two rays that divide an angle into three congruent angles are called angle trisectors. Figure %:

An angle bisected and trisected On the left, angle ABC is bisected by the ray BD.

Credits to google.

In short, no.
