Answer:
x = (5,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
the quadratic formula is x =( -b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
to solve for x, a=1, b=-8,c=15
x =( -(-8)±√((-8)^2-4*1*15))/2(1)
x=8 ± √(64-60))/2(1)
x=(8 ± √(4)) / 2
x=(8 ± 2) / 2
solve with '+'
x=(8 + 2) / 2 = 10/5 = 5
solve with '-'
x=(8 - 2) / 2 = 6/2 = 3
x = (5,3)
To answer this, set up a system of equations. What we know is that
5x + 2y = 100
And...
x+y=38
x represents the unknown number of 5 points questions
y represents the unknown number of 2 point questions
In my opinion the easiest way to solve this is to use substitution (that is when you find out the value of one variable, either x or y, and substitute that value as the variable).
So,
x+y=38
Subtract x from both sides
y=38-x
Now, plug (38-x) in as y in the other equation.
5x + 2(38-x) = 100
5x + 76-2x= 100
3x+76=100
3x=24
x=8
Now that you know that x=8, you can solve for y.
5x+2y=100
5(8)+2y=100
40+2y=100
2y=60
---- ------
2 2
y=30
X=8
Y=30
There are 8 five point questions on the test and 30 two point questions on the test
