a test has 36 questions worth a total of 100 points. the test consists of true/false questions worth 2 points each. and multiple choice questions worth 4 points each. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "how many of each type of questions are on the test?
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity:: t + m = 36 questions
\n" ); document.write( "Points Eq: 2t +4m = 100
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "Modify for elimination::
\n" ); document.write( "2t + 2m = 72
\n" ); document.write( "2t + 4m = 100
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"m\":
\n" ); document.write( "2m = 28
\n" ); document.write( "m = 14 (# of multiple-choice questions)
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"t\":
\n" ); document.write( "t + m = 36
\n" ); document.write( "t + 14 = 36
\n" ); document.write( "t = 22 (# of true/false questions)
