Connor made 65 field goals during one season. A field goal can either be a 2 point basket, or a 3 point basket, t. He scored a t

otal of 151 points. Write a system of equations to figure out how many baskets of each type that he scored.
A)w + t = 151
2w + 3t = 65

B)w + t = 65
2w + 3t = 151

C)w - t = 65
2w + 3t = 151

D)w + t = 65
2w - 3t = 151

Answer:

The correct system would be B

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason that it is B, is that we would first need an equation for the total number of baskets he made. In this one, we need the two pointers added to the three pointers to get the total of 65

w + t = 65

The second equation needs to be the total number of points (151). That should be equal to the value of the shot times the amount of them made.

2w + 3t = 151

This is option B, and is therefore the answer.

rosijanka [135]
Well, 1/3 is equal to 0.3, and 1/4 is equal to .25, so it can't be a.
3/4 is equal to .75 and 6/9 is equal to 0.6, so it can't be b.
5/8 is equal to 0.625 and 20/32 is also equal to 0.625, so it could be c.
7/9 is equal to 0.7 and 21/28 is equal to 0.75, so it can't be D.
Your best bet is C. Because both sides of C are equal.
C 5/8=20/32

Find the solution to the system of equations.
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

x = 1, y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

set each equation equal:

-7x + 3 = -x - 3

-6x + 3 = -3

-6x = -6

x = 1

y = -7 + 3

y = -4

Sean is driving to visit his friend in another state. In the first hour, he travels 1/5 of the total distance. Second hour he tr
astra-53 [7]

Answer:

The friends live 285 miles apart.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total distance in miles Sean needs to cover to visit his friend be = x

On first hour distance traveled in miles is = \frac{1}{5}\ of\ the\ total\ distance = \frac{1}{5}.(x)=\frac{1}{5}x

Distance left to cover  after first hour = x-\frac{1}{5}x

On second hour distance traveled = 34 miles

Distance to still left to be covered = 194 miles

Total distance to be covered after first hour will be = 34\ miles+194\ miles = 228 miles

Thus, the equation can be given as:

⇒ x-\frac{1}{5}x=228

Multiplying each term with 5 to remove fractions.

⇒ 5x-5.\frac{1}{5}x=5\times228

⇒ 5x-x=5\times228

⇒ 4x=1140

Dividing both sides by 4.

⇒ \frac{4x}{4}=\frac{1140}{4}

∴ x=285

Thus, the friends live 285 miles apart.
