Benchmark percentage of 1% = 9.6 & 10% = 24.

What is Free Throw Percentage?

Free throw percentage (FT%) puts a player’s successful free throws in perspective to their total attempts.

In basketball, a free throw (or foul shot) is awarded to a player who has been fouled by the other team. The number of free throws depends on where on the court the player was while being fouled.

To find 1% of a number, we can move the decimal point of the number two places to the left.

Therefore, 1% of 120 is 1.2

To find 10% of a number, we can move the decimal point of the number one place to the left.

Therefore, 10% of 120 is 12

Since 10% of 120 is 12 and

20% = 2 x 10%

then 20% of 120 = 2 x 10% of 120

= 2 x 12 = 24

Since 1% of 120 is 1.2 and

8% = 8 x 1%

then 8% of 120 = 8 x 1%  of 120

= 8 x 1.2 = 9.6

Hence the answer is, Benchmark percentage of 1% = 9.6 & 10% = 24.

The circumference of circle A is four times the circumference of circle B. Which statement about the areas of the circles is tru
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The area of circle A is 16 times the area of circle B.

Step-by-step explanation:

he area of circle A is three times the area of circle B.

It depends on the value of π.

It depends on the actual diameters of the circles.

The area of circle A is 16 times the area of circle

the circumference of a circle = 2 x pi x r

Let imagine that the radius of B is 2cm

then the circumference of B = 2 x 2 x pi = 4pi

If the circumference of a is 4 times that of B, it means the circumference is 16 and the radius is 8

Area of a circle is pi x r^2

Area of B = pi x 2^2 = 4pi

Area of A = pi x 8^2 = 64pi

64/4 = 16 pi

consider the function represented by the equation 16b = 4r - 12. write the equation in function notation, where b is the indepen
katovenus [111]

When you write a function in the form y=f(x), y is the dependent variable, and x is the independent variable.

So, if b is the independent variable, it means that we have to solve the expression for r.

To do so, we perform the following steps: start with

16b = 4r - 12

Add 12 to both sides

16b+12 = 4r

Divide both sides by 4:

4b+3 = r

So, we wrote the expression in the form r = f(b) = 4b+3, which means that r is the dependent variable and b is the independent variable, as requested.

boyakko [2]

Answer: t + 20 = 60; 40 minutes are spent answering phone calls.

Step-by-step explanation: We know that 20 minutes are spent out of a 60 minute day of volunteer work. So, with the equation, t + 20 = 60, we can solve to find out that 40 minutes are spent answering phone calls.
