Set up a system of equations:

s = 2d - 5
s + d = 43

Where 's' represents the number of points Stilt scored and 'd' represents the number of points Dunk scored.

Plug in 2d - 5 for 's' in the 2nd equation:

s + d = 43

2d - 5 + d = 43

Combine like terms:

3d - 5 = 43

Add 5 to both sides:

3d = 48

Divide 3 to both sides:

d = 16

Plug this back into any of the two equations to find 's':

s + d = 43

s + 16 = 43

Subtract 16 to both sides:

s = 27

So Dunk scored 16 points and Stilt scored 27 points.

The answer is 25

x 33 1/3% = 75

75 / 33 1/3

0.3333

(75)(0.333) =  25

24.9999999 rounds to 25

Hope this helps, have a BLESSED day! :-)

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality 2x-y&gt;1?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Any points in the shaded region including (2,-2) and (-3,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the line into slope intercept form and graph it.

2x-y > 1 becomes -y>1-2x. Divide both sides by -1 and you get y<2x-1. Graph it with the shaded area on the right and a dashed line.

Any point which falls within the shaded red of the graph is a solution. No points on the line since it is not equal to (its dashed) are solutions. Check the location of your points to verify that they fall within this area.

(-3, -8)  ---Yes

(-1, -3)  ---No

(0, 5)  --- No

(1, 6)  --- No

(2, -2) ---Yes

Answer:

1. B) 5.7

2. A) 12

3. A) 11.4

4. A) 5.7

5. A) 16.2

6. A) 11.2

7. No, they do not form a right triangle

8. Yes, they do form a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Extra tip: The hypotenuse has to be less than both sides added together, but cannot be more than either of the sides alone.

1.

16² + b² = 17²

256 + b² = 289

256 - 256 + b² = 289 - 256

b² = 33

√b² = √33

b = 5.74 or 5.7

2.

16² + b² = 20²

256 + b² = 400

256 - 256 + b² = 400 - 256

b² = 144

√b² = √144

b = 12

3.

7² + 9² = c²

49 + 81 = c²

130 = c²

√130 = √c²

11.40 or 11.4 = c

4.

7² + b² = 9²

49 + b² = 81

49 - 49 + b² = 81 - 49

b² = 32

√b² = √32

b = 5.65 or 5.7

5.

a² + 5² = 17²

a² + 25 = 289

a² + 25 - 25 = 289 - 25

a² = 264

√a² = √264

a = 16.24 or 16.2

6.

10² + b² = 15²

100 + b² = 225

100 - 100 + b² = 225 - 100

b² = 125

√b² = √125

b = 11.18 or 11.2

7.

15² + 8² = 16²

225 + 64 = 256

289 ≠ 256

8.

5² + 12² = 13²

25 + 144 = 169

169 = 169
