A science test, which is worth 100 points, consists of 24 questions. Each question is worth either 3 points or 5 points. If x is

the number of 3-point questions and y is the number of 5-point questions, the system shown represents this situation.
x + y = 24

3x + 5y = 100

What does the solution of this system indicate about the questions on the test?

The test contains 4 three-point questions and 20 five-point questions.
The test contains 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions.
The test contains 14 three-point questions and 10 five-point questions.
The test contains 20 three-point questions and 8 five-point questions.

Answer:

The test contains 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can substitute a definition of one of the variables by rearranging the first equation.

We set the first equation equal to one of our two variables.

y = 24 - x

Now we substitute this equality into our second equation

3x + 5(24 - x) = 100

Two more than 16 times a number is the same as 21 less than the product of -7 and the number
slava [35]

Answer:

  • -1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let the number be x, and we have equation:</u>

  • 16x + 2 = -7x - 21
  • 16x + 7x = - 21 - 2
  • 23x = - 23
  • x = -1

The number is -1

Compare the functions shown below:<br><br> Which function has the greatest maximum y-value?
solmaris [256]
Answer: It's a tie between f(x) and h(x). Both have the same max of y = 3

The highest point shown on the graph of f(x) is at (x,y) = (pi,3). The y value here is y = 3.

For h(x), the max occurs when cosine is at its largest: when cos(x) = 1. 
So,
h(x) = 2*cos(x)+1
turns into
h(x) = 2*1+1
h(x) = 2+1
h(x) = 3
showing that h(x) maxes out at y = 3 as well

--------------------------------

Note: g(x) has all of its y values smaller than 0, so there's no way it can have a max y value larger than y = 3. See the attached image to see what this graph would look like if you plotted the 7 points. A parabola seems to form. Note how point D = (-3, -2) is the highest point for g(x). So the max for g(x) is y = -2

Leah loves chicken wings and is comparing the deals at three different restaurants. Buffalo Bills has 88 wings for \$7$7. Buffal
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

Buffalo mild wings offers the lowest price per wing ($0.83).

Step-by-step explanation:  

Let us find unit price per buffalo wing of each restaurant.

\text{Unit rate for buffalo bills}=\frac{\$7}{8\text{ wings}}

\text{Unit rate for buffalo bills}=\frac{\$0.875}{\text{ wing}}

Upon rounding our answer to nearest cent we will get,

\text{Unit rate for buffalo bills}=\frac{\$0.88}{\text{ wing}}

Therefore, buffalo bills offers each wing for $0.88.

\text{Unit rate for buffalo mild wings}=\frac{\$10}{12\text{ wings}}

\text{Unit rate for buffalo mild wings}=\frac{\$0.83333}{\text{ wing}}

Upon rounding our answer to nearest cent we will get,  

\text{Unit rate for buffalo mild wings}=\frac{\$0.83}{\text{ wing}}

Therefore, buffalo mild wings offers each wing for $0.83.

\text{Unit rate for wingers}=\frac{\$17}{20\text{ wings}}

\text{Unit rate for wingers}=\frac{\$0.85}{\text{ wing}}

Therefore, wingers offers each wing for $0.85.

We can see that buffalo mild wings offers the lowest price per wing that is $0.83 per wing.
