The answer would be 8! This is because there were already five and then Jason got in, so six, and then two friends got in as well, so six plus two is eight!
X=8.
Following the similarity statement, we know that AC is to DF as BC is to EF. The ratio would be:
24/(x-2) = 20/5
Cross multiply:
24*5 = 20(x-2)
Use the distributive property:
120 = 20x - 40
Add 40 to both sides:
120+40 = 20x - 40 + 40
160 = 20x
Divide both sides by 20:
160/20 = 20x/20
8 = x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the slope formula:
Answer:
Whitney made 6 baskets
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of baskets made by Whitney be x.
The 15 baskets made by
Chiyann is equal to 2 times plus 3 what Whitney made
Mathematically what she made would be 2x + 3
To get x, we equate this equation to 15
2x + 3 = 15
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6 baskets
