To represent the change in points, you can think of it in two ways:
1. You will go down 25 points for every wrong answer, so -25 + -25 + -25 would represent what is happening. They are all negative, so you keeping moving down in value.
2. You can also think of this as 3 groups of -25.
Both answers are -75. The answer is negative because the change was down in points.
-75 is the integer that represents this situation.
The answer is C. C is not a proportion.
Hope this helps!
20 less than (-20) a number (n) is more than (>) twice the same number (2n)
-20+n>2n
minus n both sides
-20>n
n<-20
Answer:
x = 38, y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since AB = BC then the triangle is isosceles and the base angles are congruent, that is
∠ DAB = ∠ DCB = 52°
Subtract the sum of the base angle from 180° for ∠ ABC
∠ ABC = 180° - (52 + 52)° = 180° - 104° = 76°
Note that ∠ ABD = ∠ CBD, thus
x = 76 ÷ 2 = 38
BD bisects the side AC, thus DC = AD = 4
Thus y = 4
