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.

For what value(s) of k is the linear system consistent? (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6x_1-9x_2=8

9x_1+kx_2=-1

The given system is AX=B can be represented by

\begin{bmatrix}6 &-9 \\ 9 & k\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x_1\\ x_2\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}8\\ -1\end{bmatrix}

The given system is consistent when determinant of A is not equal to zero

|A|

|A|=6k-(-81)=6k+81

k\neq \frac{-27}{2}

i.e. system is consistent for all value of k except k=\frac{-27}{2}

R-\frac{-27}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

x +3 I x⁴ + 0x³ - 6x² + 0x  -28 I x³ - 3x² + 3x - 9

         x⁴ + 3x³

       <u>-       -      </u>

                -3x³ - 6x²

                -3x³ - 9x²

               <u>  +      +     </u>

                        3x² + 0x

                       3x²  + 9x

                                -9x  -28

                                -9x  - 27

                                <u> +      +    </u>

                                         -1

P(x) =(x +3)* (x³ - 3x² + 3x - 9) + (-1)
