A basketball player scored 29 points in a game. The number of three-point field goals the player made was 29 less than three tim

es the number of free throws (each worth 1 point). Twice the number of two-point field goals the player made was 15 more than the number of three-point field goals made. Find the number of free-throws, two-point field goals, and three-point field goals that the player made in the game.
A-10 free throws; 1 two-point field goals; 8 three-point field goals

B-11 free throws; 8 two-point field goals; 4 three-point field goals

C-10 free throws; 9 two-point field goals; 3 three-point field goals

D-10 free throws; 8 two-point field goals; 1 three-point field goals

If you let x represent the number of free throws.         
let y represent the number of two-point field goal.         
let z represent the number of three-point shots made.

Then the correct system of linear equations is as follows: 

x + 2y + 3z = 29 (The total number of points scored is 29.)
z = 3x - 29 (The number of 3-pointers was 29 less than 3 times the number of free throws.)
2y = z + 15 (Twice the number of 2-point shots made was 15 more than the number of 3-pointers.) 

Solution:
This basketball player scored 10 points via free throws (10 at 1 point each), 16 points via 8 two-point shots made, and 3 points via 1 three-point shots made. So, in the choice its letter D.

Answer:

The speed and time are directly proportional in that the higher the speed the lesser the time and vice versa.

The constant is the total distance which is 180 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

The distance between the  two cities is 180km

1.The distance was covered by a car at the rate of 50km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/50

time= 3.6 hours

2.The distance was covered by a bus 45km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/45

time= 4 hours

3.The distance was covered by a bicycle at 25km/h

The time taken will be

velocity= distance/time

time= distance/velocity

time= 180/25

time= 7.2 hours

To solve these questions, use this formula: X3= F(X1-X2) Y3= F(Y1-Y2) Where X3 is the X value in the coordinate your solving for, F is the fraction, X1 is the first X and X2 is the second X Plug in your numbers to fit this: X3= 1/4 x (0--2) Y3= 1/4 x (4- -3) By solving you get: (-.5, 1.75)
