Answer:
<em>Jack scored a total of -40</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Arithmetic</u>
Jack took a test where the correct answers are given as positive numbers and the incorrect answers are negative numbers.
The scores were
-65,-10,-15,20,30
The total score is the arithmetic sum of all scores, including their signs:
Total score: -65-10-15+20+30
Total score: -40
Jack scored a total of -40
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sides be a, b and c.
<h3>Given</h3>
The length of one side of a triangle is 2 feet less than three times the length of its second side
The length of the third side is 3/4 of the sum of the lengths of the first two sides:
The perimeter of the triangle is 17.5 feet:
<h3>Solution</h3>
Substitute a with b in the second equation:
- c = (3/4)(3b - 2 + b) = (3/4)(4b - 2) = (3/4)(4b) - (3/4)(2) = 3b - 1.5
Now substitute a and c with b in the third equation and solve for b:
- 3b - 2 + b + 3b - 1.5 = 17.5
- 7b - 3.5 = 17.5
- 7b = 17.5 + 3.5
- 7b = 21
- b = 3
Find the value of a:
- a = 3b - 2 = 3*3 - 2 = 9 - 2 = 7
Find the value of c:
- c = 3b - 1.5 = 3*3 - 1.5 = 9 - 1.5 = 7.5
The sides of the triangle are:
- a = 7 feet, b = 3 feet, c = 7.5 feet
For the first one it is 200% because he walked twice as much today than yesterday. For the second one the answer is yes with a 14.49. (I'm not sure on the second.)
