Anyone help?? ive friends take a maths test
Adam, Brandon, Chen together scored 200 marks
Brandon, Chen and Damion together scored 215
Chen, Damion, Erica together scored 224
Damion and Erica scored more than Chen
The five of them together scored 350 marks

What are their individual scores

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent each friend with the first letter of their name

So:

Substitute: in

Collect like terms

Make D + E the subject in

Substitute in

Collect like terms

Substitute in and

So, we have:

We have:

i.e.

and

For and to be true,

i.e.

So, we have:

Solve for B

Solve for A

false

step-by-step explanation:

false.   two legs of the trapezoid would be congruent, but the other two would not.   were all the legs congruent, then we'd have a square; were the 2 shorter sides congruent and the 2 longer sides also congruent, we'd have a rectangle.

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
