Answer:
0.8
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply 1.00 .20 4 times
Come on now, Tayala !
What if I say to you:
"Start with 3 cows, take away 7 cows, and then add 14 cows. How many are there ?"
Don't let the little 't' scare you. It doesn't matter one bit what 't' really is. It can be
a number, a teacher, a tiger, or a teacup. Whatever it is, you start with 3 of them,
take away 7 of them, and then add on 14 of them. How many are there ?
Hint: If there are not ten of them, then go back and look at the cows again.
Start by defining variables (things you don't know). Let's make:
t = number of true/false questions
m = number of multiple choice questions
Equation #1
total questions on the test (given to be 20) is then:
t + m = 20
Equation #2
Multiply the number of questions by the points it's worth to get the total points
3t + 11m = 100
Now, you can use substitution to combine the two equations.
t + m = 20
by subtracting m from both sides, equation 1# becomes..
t = 20 - m
substitute t for 20 - m in the second equation.
3(20 - m) + 11m = 100
Solve for m.
3(20 - m) + 11m = 100
60 - 3m + 11m = 100
8m = 100 - 60
8m = 40
m = 5
There are 5 multiple choice questions on the test.
Now use this to find t.
t + m = 20
t + 5 = 20
t = 20 - 5
t = 15
there are 15 true/false questions on the test.
