Answer:
(a) 7 essays and 29 multiple questions
(b) Your friend is incorrect
Step-by-step explanation:
Represent multiple choice with M and essay with E.
So:
--- Number of questions
--- Points
Solving (a): Number of question of each type.
Make E the subject of formula in 

Substitute 36 - M for E in 


Collect Like Terms


Divide both sides by -4


Substitute 29 for M in 


Solving (b): Can the multiple questions worth 4 points each?
It is not possible.
See explanation.
If multiple question worth 4 points each, then
would be:

Where x represents the number of points for essay questions.
Substitute 7 for E and 29 for M.


Subtract 116 from both sides



Make x the subject

Since the essay question can not have worth negative points.
Then, it is impossible to have the multiple questions worth 4 points

Answer:
6.8x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this question I combined like terms:
(2.5x + 4.3x) - 5
2.5x + 4.3x = 6.8x
Then you add the 5 to the end of the expression:
6.8x - 5
12x+2=17y
12x+2=17(0)
12x+2=0
-2 -2
——
12x+0= -2
— —
12 12
x= -2/12
X= -1/6
First you subtract the two equations
x^2-2x+3-6x
You simplify that and get
x^2+4x+3 = 0
Now we solve using the quadratic formula.
We get x = -1 and x = -3.
Now we find the y values by plugging the x values into the equation.
f(x) is the same as y.
y = (-1)^2 - 2(-1) + 3
y = 1+2+3
y = 6
Now for the other x value.
y = (-3)^2 - 2(-3) + 3
y = 9+9
y = 18
So the two ordered pairs are (-1,6) and (-3,18)
