The area of your game board is = 126 * 90 = 11340 cm^2;
A small suares has x^2 his area; where x measure his length;

Prime factorization

11340 | 2
 5670 | 2
 2835 | 5
  567  | 3
  189 | 3
    63 | 3
    21 | 3
      7 | 7
      1

11340 = 2^2 * 3^4 * 5 * 7 = 2^2 * ( 3^2 ) ^ 2 * 5 * 7 = 18^2 * 5 * 7

We observ that the possible length of the side is 18( we have 35 small squares ).

Answer:

Well, if <em>y </em>is 1

Then the equation would be y = 1 (2x)

So, depending on the answer options. Y would be double of whatever the X value is.

See how 1 X value is worth 2 Y?

Lindsey Wilson was the top scorer in a women's professional basketball league for the 2006 regular season, with a total of 814 p
baherus [9]

Answer:

The number of free throws, two-point throw, and three-point throw are 135, 173, and 111 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x,y, and z are the numbers of two-point field goals, numbers of three-point field goals, and the number of free-throws (one-point goal) respectively.

The total points= 814

\Rightarrow 2x+3y+z=814\;\cdots(i)

As the number of two-point  goals was 49 less than double the number of three-point field goals she made.

\Rightarrow x=2y-49 \;\cdots(ii)

Again, the number of free goals was 38 less than the number of two-point field goals she made.

\Rightarrow z=x-38\;\cdots(iii)

From equations (i) and (iii)

2x+3y+x-38=814

\Rightarrow 3x+3y=852

\Rightarrow x+y=284

\Rightarrow 2y-49+y=284 [using equation (ii)]

\Rightarrow 3y=333

\Rightarrow y=111

From equation (ii),

x= 2\times111-38=173

From equation (iii),

z=173-38=135.

Hence,

The number of free throws, z= 135

The number of two-point throw, x=173

The number of three-point throw, y=111.

<em>1, 2, 3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Of the three units, the <em>kilogram</em> is the largest and the <em>milligram</em> is the smallest. The prefix “<em>kilo</em>” means a thousand and “<em>milli</em>” means one-thousandths.

1,000,000mg = 1kg
