Which box-and-whisker plot represents this data?

45 Ms. Ling's history exam contained 20 questions worth a total of 100 points. There were short
answer questions worth 3 points each and a few short essay questions worth 11 points each.

Which system of equations correctly represents this situation?

x + y = 20
3x + 11y = 100
x + y = 100
3x + 11y = 20
x + 20 = 100
y + 3 = 11
x + y = 11
20x + 100y = 3
46 Identify the equation that represents this situation.
Eleven more than twice a number is one less than four times the number.
11 + 2n = 1 -
4n
 2n - 11 = 1 - 4n
2n + 11 = 4n - 1
11 + 4n = 2n - 1
47 Write an inequality to represent the following situation:
Eight more than a number is at most the product of five and that number.
n + 8 > 5n
8+n>5+n
8 + n < 5/n
n + 8 < 5n
48 One number is 251 more than another number. The smaller number is 169. Let n represent the
larger number.

Which of these equations shows this situation algebraically?

169 = 251 + n
251 = 169 - n
n = 169 + 251
n = 251 - 169
49 After addressing 50 envelopes for a charity fund-raiser, a volunteer had fewer than 28 envelopes
