Let's start by seeing what percentage is incorrect.
100-85=15
So, 15% is incorrect when answering 3 problems wrong. So let's divide 15 by 3.
15÷3=5
So, each problem is worth 5%, let's divide 100 by 5. The reason I'm doing thiis is to find how many questions are on the quiz, since if you got them all right, it's 100.
100÷5
20
There are 20 questions, let's make sure this is correct.
If she got 3 wrong, she got 17 right. Let's calculate her percentage and make sure it is the right one.
17÷20
.85×100
85%
So, there are 20 questions on the math quiz.
Since the angles are complementary, they add to 90°. So we can write the equation:
x represents the first angle, and 4x represents the second
x+4x=90
5x=90
x=18
So the first angle is 18° and the second is 72° (18*4)
Hope this helps
Answer:
5ft is his actual height.
Oranges = x
apples = y
8x + 11y = 15.22
x = 0.50
8(0.50) + 11y = 15.22
4 + 11y = 15.22
11y = 15.22 - 4
11y = 11.22
y = 11.22/11
y = 1.02 <== cost of each apple
