17 one point shots and 39 two point shots were made
Solution:
Given that,
At a basketball game, a team made 56 successful shots
They were a combination of 1- and 2-point shots
Let "x" be the number of 1 point shots
Then, 56 - x is the number of two point shots
The team scored 95 points in all
Therefore,
1(number of 1 point shots) + 2(number of two point shots) = 95
x + 2(56 - x) = 95
x + 112 - 2x = 95
x = 112 - 95
x = 17
Then, number of two point shots = 56 - x = 56 - 17 = 39
Thus 17 one point shots and 39 two point shots were made
Try this suggested option (all the details are in the attachment), the correct orientation is marked with red and green colours.
P.S. The point C has coordinates: (3;1). If to traslate it 6 units right and 5 units down, then (3+6;1-5) ⇒ (9;-4). The same principle is for the others points A, B and D. Note, after translation point A is point E, B⇒F, C⇒G and D⇒H.
Answer:
Simile and personification, explanations below!
Step-by-step explanation:
"Like the straw in her pink lemonade" = simile
A simile compares two things using like or as. In this case, the story compares the bending of the microphone to bending the straw in lemonade.
"Her voice an impostor" = personification
Personification describes a object with human-like qualities or characteristics. In this case, a voice can't actually be an impostor as it is not a living person.
