Answer:
<em>Sherita would need to make 10 free throws</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Proportions</u>
Sherita made 46 of her first 60 free throws in this basketball season. Calculating the average we get:
Sherita wants to have a free throw average of at least 80% in her next x free throws. This means she will have 46+x made throws out of 60+x total throws. For this new performance, the new average would be:
And we equate it to 80% (0.8 in decimal):
Multiplying by 60+x:
Operating:
Subtracting 46 and 0.8x:
0.2x=2
Dividing by 0.2
x = 10
Sherita would need to make 10 free throws

Answer:
4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
slope is 4/5
y = mx + b
m = slope
Let X be the number of hours
Brady drives 60 mph for X number of hours, which is written as 60x.
Mary drives 45 mph for x number of hours, which is written as 45x.
The equation to solve for the number of hours is:
60x + 45x = 1365
Simplify:
105x = 1365
Divide both sides by 105:
x = 1365 / 105
x = 13 hours.
