Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of extra consecutive free throws to raise the average to 75% be 'x'.
Number of free throws already taken = 32
Number of attempts = 45
According to question, it becomes,
Hence, the player need to make 2 consecutive free throws to raise the average to 75%.
Answer:
AE = 18 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Δ AEB and Δ DEC are similar , then corresponding sides are in proportion, that is
=
, substitute values
=
( cross- multiply )
10(2x + 4) = 12(x + 8) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides
20x + 40 = 12x + 96 ( subtract 12x from both sides )
8x + 40 = 96 ( subtract 40 from both sides )
8x = 56 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 7
Then
AE = 2x + 4 = 2(7) + 4 = 14 + 4 = 18 units
