Answer:

x + x + x + x is the same as 4x

because its "x four times"

5x and x+5 are not the same because x+5 in not "x five times"

5x is 5 multiplied by x.

x + 5 is 5 added to x.

Test worth 75 points ; test score of 96%

vfiekz [6]

Presuming the question is "How many points did he miss", you would find the solution by multiplying the amount of possible points by the test score as a fraction. 96% is the fraction $\frac{96}{100}$ . Therefore, you get the equation $75*\frac{96}{100}$ . This is equal to 72, so he missed 3 points, or 75-72 points.

He missed 3 points.

Someone help pretty please!

Nonamiya [84]

The answer is choice B
y > (2/3)x + 1

The boundary line is the equation y = (2/3)x + 1 which can be found through the slope formula to get m = 2/3. Then you use one of the two points on the line to find b = 1.

The equal sign in y = (2/3)x + 1 changes to a "greater than" sign to indicate two things
A) The shaded region is above the boundary line
B) The boundary line itself is a dashed line to indicate "no solution points on this line"
