Answer: (i) 4x - 40 = 76
(ii) 29 questions
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total number of questions be x.
Since he received 4 points for every correct answer and he got 10 answers wrong , this means he lost 40 points , the equation thus become
4x - 40 = 76
To find the value of x , add 40 to both sides
4x = 116
divide through by 4
x = 29
Therefore , there are 29 questions on his math test
Answer:
y = -x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
<u>slope (m):</u> Since the line is going downhill, the slope will be negative
slope = rise / run
slope = 1 / 1
slope = 1
m = -1
<u>y - intercept (b):</u> this when x = 0, the line is crossing the vertical line (y-axis)
b = -1
so y = mx + b is
b = -1, m = -1
y = (-1)x + (-1)
Evaluate 2^3+5x(6+4)÷2 following Order of Operations rules (PEMDAS):
Work within parentheses is done first, followed by exponentiation, and then mult. and div., and finally add'n. and subtr'n.
Thus, 2^3+5x(6+4)÷2 becomes 2^3+5x(10)÷2
8 + 50x/2
8 + 25x

Answer:
The distance is 29.3 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to find the distance from the diving board to the bottom of the pool
To get this, we will need to add the height of the diving board above the ground plus the distance of the bottom of the pool below the ground
Mathematically, we can have this as:
12.4 + 16.9
= 29.3 feet
