20x + 25 = 165

x represents the number of bags. You can solve the equation to make sure the answer is 7.

20x + 25 = 165

Subtract 25 from both sides.

20x = 140

Divide 20 off of both sides.

x = 7

A test is worth 80 points. Multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points, and
gavmur [86]

Answer:

<u>There are 10 multiple-choice questions and 15 short-answer questions in the test</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Test worth 80 points

Multiple-choice questions are worth 2 points

Short-answer questions are worth 4 points

Multiple-choice questions + Short-answer questions = 25

2. How  many multiple-choice questions are there?

Let's solve this problem, this way:

m = Multiple-choice questions

s = Short-answer questions

Our equations system is:

m + s = 25

2m + 4s = 80

Solving for m in the 1st equation:

m + s = 25

m = 25 - s

Substituting m in the 2nd equation and solving for s:

2m + 4s = 80

2 * ( 25 - s) + 4s = 80

50 - 2s + 4s = 80

2s = 80 - 50

2s = 30

<u>s = 30/2 = 15</u>

Substituting s in the 1st equation and solving for m:

m = 25 - 15

<u>m = 10 </u>
