Answer:

He made approximately 32 free throws.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that there's a typo in the question and that he made 57% of his attempted free throws, then we can solve it as shown below:

We can apply a rule of three in order to calculate the number of free throws he made. This is done as follows:

56 free throws -> 100%

x free throws -> 57%

56/x = 100/57

100*x = 57*56

x = 57*56/100 = 31.92

It can also be solved by transforming the percentage in a fraction such as 57% = 57/100 and then multiplying it by the total attempts.

free throws made = 56*57/100 = 31.92

He made approximately 32 free throws.

It takes 4 people 6 days to paint a wall. How many days would it take 12 people
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

There are more than one way to do this:

Here's one way:

The least common multiple of 4 people and 3 people is 12 people.

12 people is 3 times as many people as 4 people, and

12 people is 4 times as many as 3 people.

Since 4 people take 6 days, 3 times as many people take only

one-third as long, or only 2 days. (since 2 is one-third of 6)

Since 3 people is only one-fourth as many people as 12, it will take

them 4 times as long as it would take 12 people, or 8 days. (since

4 times 2 is 8).

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 8 from 12

4 days

How many terms can 5x+9-4b have
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

8x

Step-by-step explanation:

The constants are the numbers that are NOT

attached to anything. In the expression, 3x + 2,

(2) is a constant because it is not attached to

anything. The (3) is not a constant because it

is attached to x, and it is actually a coefficient.
