Answer:
1/4 of the credit
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells you n=5. Putting that into the expression for lost credit, you get ...
1/(5-1) = 1/4
of the credit is lost for a question with 1 wrong answer.
You will lose 1/4 of the credit.
After the 25% discount the vase would cost $18.00
3/4 = 6/x....3/4 = 6/8...notice that proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions
x = 8
Comparing the functions, from the tables, it is found that (f - g)(x) is positive in the interval (–∞, 9)
.
----------------------
- For the subtraction function, we simply subtract both functions, thus:
- It is positive if f is greater than g, that is: f(x) > g(x).
- It is a linear function, so one function is greater before the equality, one after.
- They are equal at x = 9.
- If x < 9, f(x) > g(x), and thus, (f - g)(x) is positive, which means that the desired interval is:
(–∞, 9)

Answer: the system of equations are
x + y = 35
3x + 2y = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x= the number of short answer questions.
Let y= the number of multiple choice questions.
Noah wants 35 questions on the exam. This means that
x + y = 35
He plans to mix short answer questions, worth 3 points, with multiple choice questions worth 2 points. This means that x short answer questions will give 3x points and y multiple choice questions will give 2y points
Since the exam is worth 100 points, then,
3x + 2y = 100 - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 35 - y into equation 1, it becomes
3(35 - y) + 2y = 100
105 - 3y + 2y = 100
y = 105 - 100 = 5
x = 35 - y = 35 - 5
x = 30
