Thalia, a quiz show contestant, answered 20 questions. She was awarded 2 points for every correct answer that she gave, but she

was penalized 1 point for every incorrect answer. In the end, Thalia had a total of 28 points. In order to determine the number of correct and incorrect answers that she gave, a viewer at home used the system of linear equations x + y = 20 and 2 x + y = 28, with x being the number of correct answers and y being the number of incorrect answers. The viewer solved the system by using the linear combination method as shown.
x + y = 20. + StartFraction Negative 2 x minus y = negative 28 over Negative x = negative 8 EndFraction. StartFraction negative x Over negative 1 EndFraction = StartFraction negative 8 Over negative 1 EndFraction. X = 8.
8 + y = 20. 8 + y minus 8 = 20 minus 8. y = 12.

Let p: x < −3 Let q: x > 3 What is represented by p ∨ q?
anastassius [24]

Answer:

p v q = x < -3 or x > 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

p: x < -3

q: x > 3

and we need to find p v q

v symbols represents disjunction and in simple terms it is called "or"

So, p v q represents either p holds or q holds

So, p v q = x < -3 or x > 3

Lissie set a goal to save $320 for a new computer. So far she has saved $112. What percent of her goal has Lissie saved so far?
Mariulka [41]
These are false. Tami will need to work 11 weeks to get to her goal. To find out this problem, first take out the 100 from the 320 which then gives you 220.  Then divide 220 by 20 which gives you 11. 1 is wrong because Tami does not have to work more than 21 weeks to get to her goal. 2 is also wrong because Tami does not need to save more that 11 weeks to get to her goal, she has to work 11 weeks only.
