16. basketball the average number of points a basketball team scored for three games was 63 points. in the first two games, they

The number of points the team scored in each game are 23, 23 and 17 points respectively.

<h3>Equation</h3>

There are three basic types of equation in mathematics. Namely:

Linear equations

Quadratic equations

Simultaneous equations

Total points scored = 63 points

First game = (x + 6) points

Second game = (x + 6) points

Third game = x points

63 = x + (x + 6) + (x + 6)

63 = x + x + 6 + x + 6

63 = 3x + 12

63 - 12 = 3x

51 = 3x

x = 51/3

x = 17

Therefore,

First game = (x + 6) points

= (17 + 6)

= 23 points

Second game = (x + 6) points

= (17 + 6)

= 23 points

Third game = x points

= 17 points

8 is 6.2
9 is 7
The pattern here is +0.8.
4.6 - 3.8=0.8
5.4-4.6=0.8, and so on

The number of turtles in a pond is four more than twice the number of crocodiles.

cluponka [151]

twice the number is multiplying

so it would be 2c then add 4 more

so 2c+4 is the correct equation.

Answer is B

At a putt putt course there are 50 yellow golf balls, 45 red golf balls, and 65 blue golf balls. What ratio compares the number

oksian1 [2.3K]

Blue balls : Total number.

Total number of balls = 50 + 45 + 65 = 160

Blue balls : Total number.

= 65: 160 Divide both by 5.
= 13 : 32

= 13/32. That is the ratio.

Prove A-(BnC) = (A-B)U(A-C), explain with an example

NikAS [45]

Answer:

Prove set equality by showing that for any element $x$ , $x \in (A \backslash (B \cap C))$ if and only if $x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C))$ .

Example:

$A = \lbrace 0,\, 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace$ .

$B = \lbrace0,\, 1 \rbrace$ .

$C = \lbrace0,\, 2 \rbrace$ .

$\begin{aligned} & A \backslash (B \cap C) \\ =\; & \lbrace 0,\, 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace \backslash \lbrace 0 \rbrace \\ =\; & \lbrace 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace \end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned}& (A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C) \\ =\; & \lbrace 2,\, 3\rbrace \cup \lbrace 1,\, 3 \rbrace \\ =\; & \lbrace 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace\end{aligned}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Proof for $[x \in (A \backslash (B \cap C))] \implies [x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C))]$ for any element $x$ :

Assume that $x \in (A \backslash (B \cap C))$ . Thus, $x \in A$ and $x \not \in (B \cap C)$ .

Since $x \not \in (B \cap C)$ , either $x \not \in B$ or $x \not \in C$ (or both.)

If $x \not \in B$ , then combined with $x \in A$ , $x \in (A \backslash B)$ .
Similarly, if $x \not \in C$ , then combined with $x \in A$ , $x \in (A \backslash C)$ .

Thus, either $x \in (A \backslash B)$ or $x \in (A \backslash C)$ (or both.)

Therefore, $x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C))$ as required.

Proof for $[x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C))] \implies [x \in (A \backslash (B \cap C))]$ :

Assume that $x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C))$ . Thus, either $x \in (A \backslash B)$ or $x \in (A \backslash C)$ (or both.)

If $x \in (A \backslash B)$ , then $x \in A$ and $x \not \in B$ . Notice that $(x \not \in B) \implies (x \not \in (B \cap C))$ since the contrapositive of that statement, $(x \in (B \cap C)) \implies (x \in B)$ , is true. Therefore, $x \not \in (B \cap C)$ and thus $x \in A \backslash (B \cap C)$ .
Otherwise, if $x \in A \backslash C$ , then $x \in A$ and $x \not \in C$ . Similarly, $x \not \in C \!$ implies $x \not \in (B \cap C)$ . Therefore, $x \in A \backslash (B \cap C)$ .

Either way, $x \in A \backslash (B \cap C)$ .

Therefore, $x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C))$ implies $x \in A \backslash (B \cap C)$ , as required.

The black graph is the graph of y=f(x). Choose the equation for the red graph.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

y-1 = f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to choose the equation for the ref graph

The red graph as we can see is above the black

This means it is more positive

The difference between the two is just 1 unit

By the addition of 1 to the y-value of the black graph, we get the red

Thus, we have that;

y- 1 = f(x)
