Let
 x: number of regular basketball
 y: number of long-distance basket
 We have the following system of equations:
 2x + 3y = 96
 x + y = 45
 Solving the system we have
 y = 45-x
 2x + 3 (45-x) = 96
 2x +135 -3x = 96
 -x = 96 -135
 x = 39
 Then,
 y = 45-x
 y = 45-39
 y = 6
 answer
 were made
 regular baskets = 39
 long-distance baskets = 6

Find cot theta if csc theta= the square root of 5/2 and tan theta>0
Nostrana [21]
Since \cot^2\theta+1=\csc^2\theta, you have

\cot^2\theta=\left(\dfrac{\sqrt5}2\right)^2-1=\dfrac14
\cot\theta=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac14}=\pm\dfrac12

Since \tan\theta>0, and \cot\theta=\dfrac1{\tan\theta}, you know that \cot\theta is also positive, which means

\cot\theta=\dfrac12

How do you solve 6 1/4 x 2 7/11 =
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

16 and 21/44  or 725/44

Step-by-step explanation:

convert 6 and 1/4 into an improper fraction; 25/4

convert 2 and 7/11 into an improper fraction; 29/11

multiply them together. \frac{25}{4} × \frac{29}{11}

you can do 25 × 29 to get  725

you can also do 4 × 11 to get 44.

725/44 simplifies to 16 and 21/44.
