Answer:

54 three- point field goals

Step-by-step explanation:

184 points = <em>x </em>free throws and 3<em>y </em> three-point field goals

x= 22 free throws, each one is 1 point

184 - 22 = 162

162 ÷ 3 = 54

54=y

54 three point field goals

Answer:  36 three-point field goals

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, set up a system of equations. Let's call the number of  one-pointers w, the number of two-pointers x, and the number of three-pointers y. We are trying to find y here. We also know that w+x+y=85, because that is the total amount of baskets, and also that w+2x+3y=184, which is the total amount of points. We know that there were 22 free throws,  so that means we can take away 22 baskets from the first equation, and also 22 points from the second equation. Now the equations are x+y=63  and2x+3y=162. Solving the equations using our knowledge of systems of equations, you get that y=36. So, 36 is the answer. Let me know if anything was unclear, and I hope this helped.

Write as many equations as possible that could represent the relationship between
IgorC [24]

Answer:

a) Here we have:

"In Family A, the youngest child is 7 years younger than the oldest, who is 18"

Let's define:

Y = age of the youngest child.

O = age of the oldest child.

Then we know that:

Y = O - 7

O = 18

Then we can replace the second equation into the first one:

Y = 18 - 7 = 11.

b) Here we have:

"In Family B, the middle child is 5 years older than the youngest child."

Let's define:

Y = age of the youngest child.

M = age of the middle child.

Here we have only one equation:

M = Y + 5.

Answer: x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+5 = 3x-6

2x-3x = -6-5

-x = -11

x = 11

Double-check:
11*2= 22                   11*3=33

22+5 = 27                33-6= 27

So I don’t really understand this so yeh pls help *pic included* by the way this is volume of cubes and cuboids and the question
faust18 [17]

Answer:

A2: 4*4*4 = 64 cm³; 6*6*6 = 216 cm³; etc...

B2: 7*4.5*4 = 126 cm³; 10.5*6*2 = 126 cm³; etc...

Step-by-step explanation:

So in A2 you have cubes, so l=b=h, and only one has to be given, called the "length of side".

In B2 they are different, hence there are 3 rows with l, b and h. But still you multiply them l x b x h
