Answer:

Nevan does not win

He scored 74 points

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how many points he gets from 58 correct questions:

Multiply 1 3/4 by 58:

58(1.75)

= 101.5

Then, find how many points he loses from 22 incorrect questions:

Multiply -1 1/4 by 22:

22(-1.25)

= -27.5

Then, subtract 27.5 from 101.5 to find how many points he scored:

101.5 - 27.5

= 74

Since he needed 90 points to win, he did not win because he only got 74.

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

\dfrac{2m -1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have common denominators inside the parentheses, we can combine the denominators. Then, we get the following expression:

2\huge\text{(}\dfrac{1}{5} m - \dfrac{2}{5} \huge\text{)} + \dfrac{3}{5}

2\huge\text{(}\dfrac{m - 2}{5} \huge\text{)} + \dfrac{3}{5}

Now, we can multiply the expression inside the parentheses by 2.

\huge\text{(}\dfrac{2m - 4}{5} \huge\text{)} + \dfrac{3}{5}

Since the expression inside the parentheses cannot be <u>simplified further</u>, we can open the parentheses and simplify the expression.

\dfrac{2m - 4}{5}  + \dfrac{3}{5}

We can combine the denominators as the denominators are the same.

\dfrac{2m - 4 + 3}{5}

Finally, we can simplify -4 + 3.

\dfrac{2m -1}{5}

Therefore, the simplified expression is (2m - 1)/5.

Point A is located at ​(4, 8)​ and point B is located at ​(14, 10)​ . What point partitions the directed line segment ​ AB⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
andrew11 [14]

The 1:3 ratio means that the distance from A to the point is 1/4 of the distance from A to B.

The difference of y-coordinates is 10-8 = 2. 1/4 of that is 2·1/4 = 1/2, so the point of interest will have y-coordinate 8 + 1/2 = 8 1/2. This apparently corresponds to the first selection:

... (6 1/2, 8 1/2)
