Answer:

-10 points

Step-by-step explanation:

A game show awards 30 points for each correct answer and deducts 50 points for each in correct answer. A contestant answers 2 questions incorrectly and 3 questions correctly. What is his final score?

Let us say Initial number of points = 0

Hence,

He answers 2 incorrectly = 0 - 50 - 50

= -100

He answers 3 correctly =-100 + 30 + 30 + 30

His final score = -100 + 30 + 30 + 30

= -10 points

two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours. Together they
Lerok [7]
Let's make,
mechanic #1's rate = x
mechanic #2's rate = y

* Their rate is dollars per hour ($/hr)

mechanic #1 worked for 20 hours (hr × $/hr = $)
20x = money earned by mech#1

and mechanic #2 worked for 5 hours
5y = money earned by mech#2

together they charged a total of $1150. So the amount of money earned by both mechanics.

20x + 5y = 1150

the sum of the two rates was $95 per hour.

x + y = 95

which means
x = 95 - y

plug (95 - y) in for "x" in the other equation to get everything in terms of one variable.

20(95 - y) + 5y = 1150

solve for y

1900 - 20y + 5y = 1150
1900 - 15y = 1150
-15y = 1150 - 1900
-15y = -750
y = -750/-15
y = 50 $/hr

Now use this to solve for x

x + y = 95
x + 50 = 95
x = 95 - 50
x = 45 $/hr

mech#1 charged 45$/hr
mech #2 charged 50$/hr

Find the domain and range of the graph
ozzi

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • domain: [-6, -1)
  • range: [-5, 4]

Step-by-step explanation:

You have correctly determined the domain to be from x = -6 to x < -1. In interval notation, that would be ...

  [-6, -1)

__

The range is the vertical extent of the graph. It extends from a minimum of y = -5 to a maximum of y = +4 at the top of the curve. In interval notation, that would be ...

  [-5, 4]

15 POINTS!!!
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

1. The expected pay-out on each policy is 250 * 1/90 + 12000 * 1/100 + 17000 * 1/400 = $165.  So that's what the premium would have to be in order to get a profit of 0.

 

2. The profit per policy is the premium the company receives minus the expected payout = 350 - 165 = $185.

 

3. The expected profit on 375 policies would be 375 * 185 = $69375

Frank has devised a formula for his catering business that calculates the number of meatballs he needs to prepare.
timofeeve [1]
Just plug in the numbers into the equation.

m = 4a + 2c

a = adults
c = children
m = meatballs

The information given says there are 25 adults and 5 children. So now:

a = 25
and
c = 5
in the equation m = 4a + 2c


Now plug in the values. 
m = 4(25) + 2(5)
m = 100 + 10
m = 110

This means that 110 meatballs are required for 25 adults and 5 children.

Two angles in a triangle have measures of 23 and 98 what is the third measure of the third angle
Feliz [49]

Answer:

59

Step-by-step explanation:

As far as I know every triangle has to equal 180°

So if you add 98+23 you would get 121

subtract that from 180 and get 59

Hope this helps!
