Answer:

<em>Number of points shoot, x=17</em>

<em>Number of </em><em>free</em><em> </em><em>shoot</em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em>=</em><em>7</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider,

point shoot as x

free shoot as y.

Question say " A basketball player scored 24 times during one game "

Therefore, Number of point shoot + Number of free shoot = 24

Numerically we get,

x+y=24

Now, Free shoot gives one point and point shoot gives two points.

She scored total of 41 points.

2x+y=41

we get two equations

x+y=24

2x+y=41

By solving above linear equations...

we can write, y=24-x

replacing y value in 2x+y=41

2x+24-x=41

<em>x=17</em>

To find value of y, replace x vaule in any equation

say, x+y=24

17+y=24

<em>y=7</em>

Thus, x=17 and y=7

Number of points shoot, x=17

Number of free shoot, y=7

Samantha sends her son, Barry, to a preschool center on certain days. The cost of preschool is $45 per day along with a fixed mo
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

<h3><em>D. 880 = 45d + 70; 18 days.</em></h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given fixed monthly charge = $70.

The cost of preschool per day = $45.

Number of days = d.

Total cost of d days = cost per day × number of days + fixed monthly charge.

Therefore, we get equation

880 = 45×d+70

<h3>880 = 45d +70.</h3>

Now, we need to solve the equation for d.

Subtracting 70 from both sides, we get

880-70 = 45d +70-70

810=45d

Dividing both sides by 45, we get

\frac{810}{45} =\frac{45d}{45}

18=d.

Therefore,<em> 18 days Barry attended preschool last month.</em>

<em>Therefore, correct option is D option.</em>

<h3><em>D. 880 = 45d + 70; 18 days.</em></h3>

You pick a card at random. Without putting the first card back, you
Inga [223]

First, we need the probability of picking an odd number.

There are 5 cards in total, and 3 odd cards (3, 5, and 7).

That means that the probability that we'll draw an odd card would be \frac{3}{5}.

Then, we have 4 cards left, and 2 even cards (4 and 6), meaning that the probability that we draw an even card will be \frac{2}{4} or \frac{1}{2}.

To find the probability that these would happen in consecutive draws, we just multiply the probabilities together.

\frac{3}{5}*\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{10} or 0.3.

To convert this into a percentage, we multiply the decimal by 100.

0.3*100=30.

So the probability of picking an odd number and then picking an even number is 30%.

Hope this helps!
