Answer: 3x+8y=100
x+y=20
x=12
y=8
Step-by-step explanation: x would represent the number of multiple choice questions and y would represent the number of short response questions. the multiple choice questions were 3 points meaning that you need to find x. the short answer response questions were 8 points meaning you need to find y. altogether you need to get 100 points. for the second equation you have 20 questions that need to be both multiple choice and short response. therefore the second equation would be x+y=20. if you solved this, the answer would be that x equals 12 and y equals 8. hope this helped! :))
Answer:
y=-2x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an equation in slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b (where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)
We are given the slope, -2.
y=-2x+b
We plug in the values (5,2):
2=(-2)*5+b
2=-10+b
b=12
The equation is:
y=-2x+12
3y+14=44
Answer: First step is to subtract 14 from each side
3y = 30 (divide each side by 3)
y = 30/3, y = 10
