Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation using the formula for the area of a triangle.

Hint #22 / 3

\begin{aligned} \text{Area of a triangle} &= \dfrac12 \cdot \text{base} \cdot \text{height}\\\\ 12&= \dfrac12 \cdot 6 \cdot x \\\\ 12&= 3x \\\\ \dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}&= \dfrac{3x}{\blueD{3}} ~~~~~~~\text{divide both sides by } {\blueD{ 3}}\\\\ \dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}&= \dfrac{\cancel{3}x}{\blueD{\cancel{3}}}\\\\ x &=\dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}\\\\ x &=4\end{aligned}

Area of a triangle

⋅base⋅height

⋅6⋅x

=3x

divide both sides by 3

Complete question:

Para ingresar a la Universidad del Chocó se aplica una prueba de razonamiento que consta de 30 preguntas. Por cada respuesta correcta se asignan 5 puntos y por cada incorrecta (o no contestada) se restan 2 puntos. Si un participante obtuvo un puntaje de 94 puntos, ¿cuantas preguntas respondió bien?

Responder:

número de respuestas correctas = 22

Explicación paso a paso:

Dado lo siguiente:

Número total de preguntas = 30

Deje respuestas correctas = y; Respuestas incorrectas = n

Marca otorgada por y = 5

Marca deducida por n = 2

Si el total de preguntas = 30; luego

y + n = 30 - - - - (1)

Puntuación total obtenida = 94; luego

5y - 2n = 94 - - - (2)

De 1),

y + n = 30

y = 30 - n

Sustituya y = 30 - n en equ (2)

5 (30 - n) - 2n = 94

150 - 5n - 2n = 94

150 - 7n = 94

-7n = 94-150

-7n = - 56

n = 56/7

n = 8

Sustituir n = 8 en (1)

y + n = 30

y + 8 = 30

y = 30 - 8

y = 22

y = número de respuestas correctas = 22

n = número de respuestas incorrectas = 8

Tia Veronica Pam and Lily are sisters. Tia is eight years old and she’s two years older than Pam. Pam is five years younger than

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Pam (6 years), Tia(8 years), Veronica(11 years) , Lily (15 years)

Step-by-step explanation:

Age of Tia = 8 years

______________________________________________

Given Tia is 2 years older than Pam

mathematically

age of Pam + 2 years = age of Tia

age of Pam + 2 years = 8 years

age of Pam = 8 years- 2 years = 6 years

______________________________________________

Given Pam is five years younger than Veronica

we can infer that age of veronica is age of Pam + 5 more years

mathematically

age of Pam + 5 years = age of Veronica

6 years + 5 years = age of Veronica

age of Veronica = 11 years

______________________________________________

Given Veronica is four years younger than Lily

we can infer that age of Veronica is (age of Lily - 4 years)

mathematically

age of Veronica = age of lily - 4 years

11 years = age of lily - 4 years

age of lily = 11 years + 4 years = 15 years

age of lily = 15 years

______________________________________________

Arranging the list from youngest to oldest we have

age of Pam = 6 years

Age of Tia = 8 years

age of Veronica = 11 years

age of lily = 15 years

Arranging sisters in order of youngest to oldest

Pam, Tia, Veronica , Lily

zaharov [31]

Answer:

$2.25/km

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost charged for a total taxi ride of $14\frac{2}{9}\ km$ was $32. To get the cost per km, we divide the cost charged for the total taxi ride by the total distance that was traveled by the taxi. The cost per km is given by:

Cost per km = $\frac{Cost \ of\ money\ charged}{Total\ distance}=\frac{\$ 32}{14\frac{2}{9} \ km}=\frac{32}{\frac{128}{9} }= \$2.25/km$

Therefore the cost per kilometer is $2.25 per kilometer. Each kilometer traveled by the taxi cost $2.25.

Levart [38]

Answer:

Joy definitely does have enough soup for 22 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Upper Bound: 285ml turn it to 0.285 L 10÷2=5

280ml :

Lower Bound: 275ml turn it to 0.275 L

Upper Bound: 6.75 L 0.5÷2=0.25

6.5 Litters :

Lower Bound:6.25 L

6.75÷0.275=24.54 or 25

6.25÷0.285=21.92 or 22

$5000 was invested into an investment that pays 4.25% simple interest. The total value of the investment amounted to $6593.75. H

Basile [38]

Answer:

7.5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

P = $5000,

R = 4.25%,

A = $6593.75,

N =?

SI = A - P = 6593.75 - 5000 =$1593. 75

$\because \: SI = \frac{ PNR}{100} \\ \\ \therefore \: 1593.75 = \frac{5000 \times N \times 4.25}{100} \\ \\ \therefore \: 1593.75 \times 100 = 21,250 \times N \\ \\ N = \frac{159375}{21250} \\ \\ N = 7.5 \: years \:$
