Please let me know if you want me to add an explanation as to why this is the answer. I can definitely do that, I just don’t want to waste my time in case you don’t want me to :)
The side is 8 feet = 8*12 inches = 96 inches
Plants are needed if they are to be spaced 8 inches apart around the outside of the bed
96/8 = 12 ... so we need 12 plants on each side, please note it is including the corners.
If we not incluse corner, the flowers will be 10 each side.
Means total flower : 10 * 4 (each side) + 4(corner)
The total needed is 44 plants. : Answer
Hope that will help :)
C.-2 and -11 that would be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question we need to set up an equation.
Let's name the number of incorrect answers x.
<u>We can set up an equation that's essentially:</u>
(Points for correct answer)*(number of correct answers)+(points for incorrect answer)*(number of incorrect answers)=final score
When we plug in our numbers and variables it looks like this:
5(3)+(-2x)=-15
Simplify
15-2x=-15
Subtract 15 from both sides
-2x=-30
Divide both sides by -2
x=15
This means Smitha attempted 15 wrong answers, and that there were 18 questions in total.
