Complete Question
In the first half of a basketball game, a player scored 9 points on free throws and then scored a number of 2-point shots. In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half. Which expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game?
a) 2x + 3x + 9
b) 2x + 3 + 9
c) 2x + 3x + 9x
d) 2 + 3x + 9
Answer:
a) 2x + 3x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of points shots a player scores = x
In a free throw, the player scored 9 points = 9
The player also scored a number of 2-point shots = 2x
In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half = 3x
The expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game =
2x + 3x + 9
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both sides by 4:
Divide both sides by 3:
Answer:25,000(0.15)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is the answer because there are 25,000 gray wolf in the world and they are expected to grow by 15%. 15% is .15. So those two numbers multiplied, to the x exponent should give you the answer of how large the wolf population is expected to be.
Answer:
14 and 16
Step-by-step explanation:
They are the ONLY consecutive even numbers
And also
x and (x+2)
x(x+2)=224 ( product of a number and the consecutive of that number)
x ²+ 2x-224=0
(x+16)(x-14) =0
x=-16 or 14
In this case 14 and (14+2) 14 and 16
The integers are either 14 and 16 or -14 and -16.
