Hailey is a high school basketball player. In a particular game, she made some three point shots and some free throws (worth one

point each). Hailey scored a total of 14 points and made 4 times as many free throws as three point shots. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of three point shots Hailey made and the number of free throws she made. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answer: the system of equations are

3x + y = 14

y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of three point shots that Hailey made.

Let y represent the number of free throws(worth one point each) that Hailey made.

Hailey made some three point shots and some free throws and

scored a total of 14 points. This would be expressed as

3x + y = 14

Hailey made 4 times as many free throws as three point shots. This would be expressed as

y = 4x

How do i write an exponential equation with a vertical asymptote other that y=0
antiseptic1488 [7]
Lets say we have
P(x)/q(x)

vertical assymtotes are in the form x=something, not y=0
y=0 are horizontal assemtotes


so verticall assymtotes
reduce the fraction
set the denomenator equal to zero
those values that make the deomenator zero are the vertical assymtotes

the horizontal assymtote
when the degree of P(x)<q(x), then HA=0

when the degree of P(x)=q(x), then divide the leading coefient of P(x) by the leading coeficnet of q(x)
example, f(x)=(2x^2-3x+3)/(9x^2-93x+993), then HA is 2/9





ok so for vertical assymtote example
f(x)=x/(x^2+5x+6)
the VA's are at x=-3 and x=-2

horizontal assymtote
make degree same
f(x)=(3x^2-4)/(8x^2+9x),
the HA is 3/8

What is the solution to the equation 3x-5=2x+8+x?
Marysya12 [62]
So when solving this you are going to have to solve the equation.
Okay so first thing we need to do is simplify both sides of your equation so:
3x−5=<span>2x+8+x
</span>Simplifying process:
<span><span><span>3x</span>+</span>−5</span>=<span><span><span>2x</span>+8</span>+<span>x
</span></span><span>Combine Like Terms </span>⇒ 3x−5=<span>(2x+x)+(8)
</span><span><span>3x</span>−5</span>=<span><span>3x</span>+<span>8
</span></span><span><span>3x</span>−5</span>=<span><span>3x</span>+<span>8
</span></span>Second thing we are now going to do is s<span>ubtract 3x from both sides<span> so:
</span></span><span><span><span>3x</span>−5</span>−<span>3x</span></span>=<span><span><span>3x</span>+8</span>−<span>3<span>x
</span></span></span><span>−5</span>=<span>8
</span>Final step is to add 5 to both sides:
−5+5=<span>8+5
</span>0=<span>13
</span>The answer to your question is "<span>There are no solutions"</span>
