In a math competition, every question that is answered correctly gets a score of 4. Wrong gets a score of -2. and not answered gets a score of -1. Ali got a score of 106 with 4 questions answered incorrectly and 6 questions not being answered. Many questions were answered correctly by........
please explain it​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the score of the incorrect answers and the questions that were not answered.

Score for the incorrect answers = 4*(-2) = -8

Score for the questions not answered = 6*(-1) = -6

Score for the questions answered correctly = 106 - [ (-8) + (-6) ]

                                                                       = 106 -[-14]

                                                                        = 106 + 14

                                                                        = 120

Number of questions answered correctly = total score for questions that were answered correctly ÷ score of 1 correct answer

= 120 ÷ 4

= 30

30 questions were answered correctly.

It takes a boat 2 hours to go 16 miles downstream with the current and 4 hours to return against the current. Find the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current.

Answers

let's recall that d = rt, or namely distance = rate * time.

b = speed of the boat

c = speed of the current

now, we know that going downstream the boat went 16 miles total, that's going only one way, so the distance the boat travels downstream as well as upstream to return is 16 miles flat.

when going downstream, the boat is not really going at "b" speed, is really going at "b + c" speed, because the current is adding its speed to it, so is really going faster than "b".

when going upstream, the boat is not really going at "b" speed" either, is really going slower at "b - c" speed, because the current is against it and thus subtracting speed from "b".

let's take a look at those in a table

[tex]\begin{array}{lcccl} &\stackrel{miles}{distance}&\stackrel{mph}{rate}&\stackrel{hours}{time}\\ \cline{2-4}&\\ Downstream&16&b+c&2\\ Upstream&16&b-c&4 \end{array}\qquad \qquad \begin{cases} 16=(b+c)(2)\\\\ 16=(b-c)(4) \end{cases} \\\\\\ \stackrel{16}{(b+c)(2)}~~ = ~~\stackrel{16}{(b-c)(4)}\implies 2b+2c~~ = ~~4b-4c\implies 2c=2b-4c[/tex]

[tex]6c=2b\implies \cfrac{6c}{2}=b\implies \boxed{3c=b} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{substituting on the 1st equation}}{16~~ = ~~(\stackrel{b}{3c}+c)(2)}\implies 16=4c(2)\implies 16=8c \\\\\\ \cfrac{16}{8}=c\implies \blacktriangleright \stackrel{mph}{2}=c \blacktriangleleft~\hspace{10em}3(2)=b\implies \blacktriangleright \stackrel{mph}{6}=b \blacktriangleleft[/tex]

The circumference of the base of a cone is 24 inches. The slant height of the cone is 20 inches.

What is the surface area of the cone? Express the answer in terms of .

240 square inches
384 square inches
480 square inches
624 square inches

Answers

The surface area of a cone with circumference base of 24π inches and slant height of 20 inches is 384π inches² in terms of π.

Surface area of a cone

surface area = πr(r + l)

where

r = radiusl = slant height

Therefore,

l = 20 inches

24π = 2πr

r = 12

Therefore,

surface area  = π(12)(12 + 20)

surface area = 12π(12 + 20)

surface area = 12π × 32

surface area = 384π inches²

Solve for x. -14 - x = 14

Answers

Answer:

x= -28

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First you have to add 14 to both sides to get the x by itself. That's always the first thing you have to do. Get x by itself.

2. After that, you should have -x= 28. You can't leave it like that because it is still not simplified. It's basically saying 28 is the opposite of x. What's the opposite of positive? Negative.

3. Therefore, your final answer should be -28

Answer:

x = -28

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey! First, lets establish our equation :)

-14 -x = 14

Now, we are going to get our x alone on a single side, to do this, we are going to add 14 to both sides to be able to cut out -14 on the left side!

-14 -x = 14

+14      +14

     -x = 28

The last thing we have to do is divide both sides by -1 to get x by itself without it being negative!

-x = 28

÷-1  ÷-1

x = -28

So, x, is equal to -28 (negative 28!) :)

Hope this Helps! :)

Both sin(41) and cos(x) can be represented by the ratio ____. the angles measuring 41 and x are complementary angles. this means x+41=____. therefore x=____. since sin(41) = cos(x), this also shows that sin(41)=cos(_____).

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both sin(41) and cos(x) can be represented by the ratio b/c

What is complementary angles?

If the sum of two angles is equal to 90 degrees, then such angles are called complementary angles. The total of the two angles' measurements determines their complement and supplement. The pair of angles is said to be complimentary if the product of the two angles equals the measurement of a right angle. Example:

   40° is the complement of 50°.

   50° is the complement of 40°.

sin (41) = b/c

cos (x) = b/c

∴both sin(41) and cos(x) can be represented by the ratio b/c

x + 41 = 90 (∵ complementary angles)

x = 90-41 = 49

∵ sin 41 = cos x

∴ sin 41 = cos (90-41)

The height of the arrow will be 471 feet at 8.35s and 3.53s

What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

h represent the height of the arrow after t seconds.

h(t) = -16t² + v₀t + h₀

v₀ is the initial velocity = 190 ft/s, h₀ is the initial height = 0m, hence:

h(t) = -16t² + 190t

At 471 feet:

471 = -16t² + 190t

0 = -16t² + 190t - 471

t = 8.35 or 3.53

The height of the arrow will be 471 feet at 8.35s and 3.53s

What is tax?

A tax is some specific financial amount or some other charged taxpayer by the government in order to fund government spending.

Given is that you have to buy a new computer for $800.00 or a refurbished computer with the same equipment for $640.00. If you are paid $10.00/hour and your deductions are -

FICA (7.65%),

Federal tax withholding (12%)

State tax withholding (8%).

Total money earned after all the deductions -

A{n} = 10 - {7.65% of 10 + 12% of 10 + 8% of 10}

A{n} = 10 - {7.65/100 x 10 + 12/100 x 10 + 8/100 x 10}

A{n} = 10 - {7.65/10 + 12/10 + 8/10}

A{n} = 10 - 2.765

An = 7.235

Cost of new computer = $800.

For 1 hour. you earned $7.235.

Then, you will earn $1 in (1/7.235) hours

So, you will earn $800 in (1/7.235 x 800) = 110.5

Therefore, you will have to work 110.5 hours to buy the new computer.
