Answer:

In the first half, they scored 9 points.

in the second half, they scored:

-3 + 2*9 = 18 - 3 = 15 points.

The total number of points scored is 9 + 15 = 24 points.

Now we want to know:

"What is the ratio of the points scored in the second half to the total number of points scored?"

The ratio between two numbers a and b is written as:

a:b

In this case, the ratio will be:

15:24

But we should simplify this ratio, we can divide both sides by the same number and the ratio will remain unchanged.

As both numbers are multiples of 3, we can divide both sides by 3.

15/3 = 5.

24/3 = 8

Then:

15:24 = 5:8

The ratio is 5:8

Hello!

<u><em>Answer: </em></u>

<u><em>1. =-6</em></u>

<u><em>2. =39</em></u>

<u><em>3. =-603</em></u>

_________________________________________________

Explanation: This question's it's about the order of operations. It stands for p-parenthesis, e-exponents, m-multiply, d-divide, a-add, and s-subtract. It can also go left to right. (PEMDAS)

1. -4(3-1)+2

Do parenthesis first.

(3-1)=2

-4*2+2

Then do multiply left to right.

-4*2=-8

Add left to right.

-8+2

8-2=6

*Answer should be have negative sign.*

Answer: → \boxed{=-6}

______________________________________________________

2. 3⋅[(30−8)÷2+2]

Do parenthesis first.

(30-8)=22

22/2+2

Then divide left to right.

22/2=11

Add left to right.

11+2=13

Multiply left to right.

3*13=39

*Answer should be have positive sign.*

Answer: → \boxed{=39}

_____________________________________________________

3. 14(1-23)2+13

Do parenthesis first.

(1-23)=-22

14(-22)*2+13

Then, you multiply left to right.

14(-22)=-308

-308*2=-616

Add/subtract left to right.

-616+13

616-13=603

*The answer must be have a negative sign*

Answer: → \boxed{=-603}

____________________________________________________________

Hope this helps!

Thank you!

Have a great day!
