Answer: the number of multiple choice questions in the test is 12.

the number of short response questions in the test is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of multiple choice questions in the test.

Let y represent the number of short response questions in the test.

The total number of questions in the test is 20. It means that

x + y = 20

The multiple choice questions are worth 3 points each and the short response question are worth 8 points each. The total number of points is 100. It means that

3x + 8y = 100 - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 20 - y into equation 1, it becomes

3(20 - y) + 8y = 100

60 - 3y + 8y = 100

- 3y + 8y = 100 - 60

5y = 40

y = 40/5 = 8

x = 20 - y = 20 - 8

x = 12

Determine algebrically if f(x)=4x³-5x is odd or even function​
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

Odd function

Step-by-step explanation:

So to see if a function is odd or even we need to plug in a negative x for x, so f(-x)=4(-x)^3-5(-x). This produces -4x^3+5x, which is the exact opposite of the original equation, so it is an odd function. If it were even, then the signs of the coefficients would be the same as the original function.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

The surface area of a rectangular prism with length of

15, a width of 9 and a height of 13 is:

894.0000 square units.

not sure

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area, use this rectangular prism surface area

formula:

Surface Area =

[(Length x Width) + (Length x Height) + (Width x Height)] x 2

Example: The surface area of a rectangular prism with length of

3 inches, width of 4 inches, and height of 5 inches:

Surface Area = [(3 x 4) + (3 x 5) + (4 x 5)] x 2

Calculated out this gives a surface area of 94 Square Inches.
