we are given
highest exponent is 3
degree is the highest exponent
so, degree is 3
Let x represent a 2-point basket, and y represent a 3-point basket.
Basket equation: x + y = 16
Point equation 2x + 3y = 39
Solve using system of equations:
if x + y = 16, then x = 16 - y
Plug into the second equation:
2(16-y) + 3y = 39
32 - 2y + 3y = 39
32 + y = 39
y = 7
So the number of 3-point baskets scored was 7. Hope this helps, let me know if there’s a step you don’t understand! :)
First, find the decreased price by multiplying 100 by 8% and subtracting:
100 x 0.08 = 8
100-8 = 92 ( reduced price )
now multiply reduced price by 8% and add:
92 x 0.08 = 7.36
92 + 7.36 = $99.36
Answer:
x+14
Step-by-step explanation:
(12+x)+2
12+x+2
x+(12+2)
x+14
