A flagpole has a 10 foot shadow. A soldier standing next to it is 6 foot tall and has a 2 foot shadow. How tall is the flagpole?

Answer:

12 multiple choice and 8 True/False

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we set up a system of equations. Let x represent the True/Fale questions and y represent the multiple-choice questions. Here is a system we can use:

x + y = 20

2x + 7y = 100

We can solve this by using elimination. To do this we multiply one equation by a number, and add them together. If we multiply the first equation by -2, the "x"s will, when added together, cancel out so we can solve for y.

-2(x + y = 20)

-2x - 2y = -40

Now add them together

5y = 60

Solve for y.

y = 12

This means there are 12 multiple choice questions. 20 - 12 is 8 True/False questions.

Hope this helps and have a great day! :D

Answer:

8 True/False and 12 Multiple Choice

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y=20  ...1

2x+7y=100   ...2

Now you can multiply 2 on 1

2x+2y=40

2x+7y=100

Subtract:

-5y=-60

Divide -5 on both sides:

y=12

Substitute y with 12

x+12=20

Subtract 12 on both sides:

x=8

So there are 8 True/False and 12 Multiple Choice

Hope this Helps!

Answer:

B: 15 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Setup Coin Value and Coin Total Equation:

Coin Value Equation → 0.1d + 0.25q = $7.25 where d = dimes and q = quarters

Coin Total Equation → d + q = 50

Step 2: Rearrange Coin Total Equation in terms of dimes (d)

d = 50 - q ← Revised Coin Total Equation

Step 3: Plug in our Revised Coin Total Equation for d into our Coin Value Equation:

0.1(50 - q) + 0.25q = $7.25

0.1(50) - 0.1(q) + 0.25q = $7.25

5 - 0.1q + 0.25q = $7.25

5 + (0.25 - 0.1)q = $7.25

5 + 0.15q = $7.25

Step 4: Subtract 5 from each side of the equation to isolate q

5 - 5 + 0.15q = $7.25 - 5

0.15q = 2.25

Step 5: Divide each side of the equation by 0.15 to isolate q

0.15q

0.15

=

2.25

0.15

q = 15

Step 6: Using our value for q, Solve for d using our Coin Total Equation:

d + 15 = 50

Subtracting 15 from both sides, we get d + 15 - 15 = 50 - 15

d = 35

Summarizing our word problem, we see that 15 quarters and 35 dimes adds up to $7.25

The number of ways the yearbook chooses the winners of Most Athletic, Class Clown, Best School Spirit, and Best Looking is 330 ways.

Combination and permutation are two different ways of grouping elements of a set into subsets in mathematics. The elements of the subset can be listed in any order in a combination. The elements of the subset are listed in a specific order in a permutation.

Given that there are 11 students in a high school senior class. The number of ways will be calculated as,

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 + 3 = 4

so find the point 1/4 of the way from (-1, 2) to (7, 8)

x coordinate

Δx = ¼(7 - (-1)) = 2

x = x₀ + Δx

x = -1 + 2 = 1

y coordinate

Δy =  ¼(8 - 2) = 1½

y = y₀ + Δy

y = 2 + 1½ = 3½

(1, 3½)

Answer:

x = 10

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply second equation with -1 and then add it up with first equation

(-1)*(6x - 7y) = 18

-6x + 7y = -18

6x - 6y - 6x + 7y = 24 - 18 add like terms

y = 6 to find the value of x use this information

6x - 6y = 24 replace y with 6

6x - 6*6 = 24

6x - 36 = 24 add 36 to both sides

6x = 60 divide both sides by 6

x = 10

Answer:

I'm not sure you mean 2-(b/3) = -5/2 or (2-b)/3 = -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

if

2-(b/3) = -5/2

12-2b = -15

12+15 = 2b

27 = 2b

27/2 = b

else

(2-b)/3 = -5/2

2(2-b) = -5×3

4-2b = -15

4+15 = 2b

19 = 2b

19/2 = b
