X = number of correct answers
Y = number of incorrect answers
School A has 174 points and school B has 102 points.
A = 174
B = 102
School A has the same number of correct and incorrect answers during the final round.
A = 174 + 10X - 6Y
School B gives no incorrect answers and the same number of correct answers as school A.
B = 102 + 10X
The contest ends with the two schools tied.
Score = 174 + 10X - 6Y = 102 + 10X
174 + 10X - 6Y = 102 + 10X
Unfortunately you have not included the directions. Are you supposed to solve for x? or for y?
Suppose the directions say, "Solve for x." Then, clear out the decimal fraction by mult. both sides of the given equation by 10. This will give you the solution, that is, a formula for x in terms of y.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 10
x = 8
The y intercept is 0 and the line runs through (0,0)
m = y / x This formula can only be used when the y incept is 0.
m = 10/8
m = 5/4
Equation
y = 5/4 x
