Answer:

2-point shots = 41, 1-point shots = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of 1-point shots is x and 2-points shots is y.

The system as per question is

x + y = 57
1*x + 2*y = 98

Solve it by elimination, subtract the first equation from the second

x + 2y - x - y = 98 - 57
y = 41

Find the value of x

x + 41 = 57
x = 16

: Find the approximate perimeter of the isosceles triangle A OPD.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

24.98 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we have the coordinates

P(1,-6),D(4,3),O(7,-6)

The perimeter of triangle OPD is equal to

$P=OP+PD+OD$

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

step 1

Find the distance OP

we have

O(7,-6),P(1,-6)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(-6+6)^{2}+(1-7)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(-6)^{2}}$

$d_O_P=6\ units$

step 2

Find the distance PD

we have

P(1,-6),D(4,3)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(3+6)^{2}+(4-1)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(9)^{2}+(3)^{2}}$

$d_P_D=\sqrt{90}\ units$

step 3

Find the distance OD

we have

O(7,-6),D(4,3)

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(3+6)^{2}+(4-7)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(9)^{2}+(-3)^{2}}$

$d_O_D=\sqrt{90}\ units$

step 4

Find the perimeter

$P=6+\sqrt{90}+\sqrt{90}$

$P=6+9.49+9.49=24.98\ units$

Help please !!!!!!!!

Answer:

y = -4

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first explain when x = 0

Find where x = 0 on the graph. We are finding what the y-value would be. Trace down the y-axis along the vertical line x = 0. Where does the line intersect the y-axis when x = 0? The answer would be -4

The y-intercept is -4, and the x-value for this is 0, of course. So the correct answer for when x = 0 would be y = -4.

Next, we are told to find x when y = -2. Find where y = -2. Now, staying at y = -2, go horizontally along the x-axis at y = -2 until you reach the line. Boom! You should have connected up with the line at around x = 3. Therefore, when y = -2, x = 3
