First we define the variables:
m = multiple choice questions
s = short answer questions
Next we need to satisfy 2 conditions:
1) There are a total of 40 questions. We can represent this mathematically using the variables I defined:
2) The multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points and the short-answer are worth 4 points but they need to total 100 points. This can also be represented mathematically:
By satisfying the conditions provided we were able to create the 2 equations!
1 1/5 can be written as 6/5
7 1/2 can be written as 15/2
Let X be the number of laps Kellyn wants to jog to meet her 7 1/2 mile goal:
6/5x = 15/2 Multiply both sides by (5/6), the inverse of 6/5
x = 15(5) / 2 ( 6)
x = 75 / 12
X = 25 / 4, or 6 and 1/4 laps
Its upsidedown, witch one do you need help with?
Explanation with Answer:
2 with exponent 3= 8
8+4=12
3 with exponent 2=9
12*9=108
the ________ is a symbol for division.
2 with exponent 2=4
Now we divide. 108 divided by 4=27
The answer is D AKA 27.
