I think the answer is: -3/7x
Lets write an equation for each guy's shots and score:
4A + 2B = 18
3A + 3B = 21
To solve we multiply the first equation by -3 and the second by 2:
-12A - 6B = -54
6A + 6B = 42
--------------------
-12A + 0 = -12
A = 1
to find B we substitute in the first equation:
<span>4A + 2B = 18
</span><span>4(1) + 2B = 18
</span><span>4 + 2B = 18
</span>2B = 14
B = 7
therefore there were given 7 points in an arrow in B
1.BE = 2x + 6
ED = 5x - 12
2. To get the entire side of BD, we must add both half's which equals to the entire length.
3. 2x + 6 + 5x - 12
4.Add like terms.
2x + 5x = 7x
-12 + 6 = -6
5. So, we have 7x - 6
=7x - 6
You know that the ratio of J&S to F&So is 2:3. You need two numbers that have that same ratio to total 60 players. When you multiply both numbers by 12, you have a ratio of 2:3 but the number of players is 24 to 36. Thus, the total players is 60. When looking at the ratio of Juniors to Seniors, the ratio remains 1:2, but must total 24 players. Dividing the total players by 3, you can find where 1 part of the players equals 2 parts of the others. Keeping that same ratio in mind, you are able to calculate that the ratio of Juniors to Seniors is 8:16 but when reduced, still remains a 1:2 ratio.
If <span>y = –4x – 7, the x-intercept is found by setting y=0 and solving for x:
</span><span>0 = –4x – 7 => 4x = -7, or x = -7/4 The x-intercept is (-7/4, 0).
</span><span>The y-intercept is found by setting x = 0 and reading off the value of y:
y = –4x – 7 => y = 0 - 7, or y = -7. The y-intercept is (0, -7).</span>
