If we assume that
x isthe number of multiple choice questions, and y is the number of word problems, we can write a system of equations like:
{ x + y = 38
{ 2x + 5y = 100
If we multiply the first equation by -2 we get:
{ -2x-2y = -76
{ 2x + 5y = 100
Now if we add both equations we get only equation with 1 unknown (y) :
3y = 24 ⇒ y = 8
Substituting the calculated value to the first equation we get:
x + 8 = 38 ⇒ x = 30
The solution:
{ x = 30
{ y = 8
means that:
The test had 30 multiple choice questions, and 8 word problems.
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation: You need to divide 7 by 1/4. Whenever you divide fractions you keep the first number as it is, change the sign to multiplication and write the reciprocal of the second fraction which is you have to flip the fraction. It is going to be 7 times 4/1. Which is 28/1 which is 28.
