needs 15.5
4.6 + 6.1 + 4.5 = 15.2
he needs .3 pounds, doesn't have enough currently
Answer: The system of equations are;
a + b = 9 ———(1)
a + 3b = 23———(2)
Step-by-step Explanation: The variables used here are a and b. Where a represents the number of free throws and b represents the number of three-pointers.
From equation (1), what we have is the total number of shots he has taken altogether which is 9 shots in all. All 9 shots are an addition of free throws and three pointers (that is a + b).
In equation (2), what we have is the points obtainable times the number of shots taken (for each shot). This means if a is a free throw, then 1 times a is equal to number of free throws times 1. Similarly, if b is a three-point throw, then 3 times b is equal to the number of three pointers thrown times 3.
The solution to the equation above gives us,
a = 2 and b = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 , -2, |-2| ,|3|, 8
the absolute value makes the sign positive no matter what, for example |-2| becomes 2
Answer:
-5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the least common denominator. It is 8.
1/8- 2/8- 4/8
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
A perfect square trinomial is written as 
, where
first term 
= square of first term of binomial
second term=
=twice the product of both terms of binomial.
and third term 'c'=square of last term of binomial
Thus to create a perfect square trinomial put 'a' and 'c' a square number
Let a=4 and c=9
The required trinomial will be
![=(2x)^2+2(2x)(3)+3^2\\=(2x+3)^2.......\text{[using pattern}(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2]\\=(2x+3)(2x+3)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%282x%29%5E2%2B2%282x%29%283%29%2B3%5E2%5C%5C%3D%282x%2B3%29%5E2.......%5Ctext%7B%5Busing%20pattern%7D%28a%2Bb%29%5E2%3Da%5E2%2B2ab%2Bb%5E2%5D%5C%5C%3D%282x%2B3%29%282x%2B3%29)
