Answer:

There are 2 points for a field goal, and 1 point for a free throw.

 x=Points scored for a field goal

 y=Points scored for a free throw

It is also given that, you have scored at least 3 points in every game this season, and have a high season score of 15 points in one game.

 2x+y≤15

x+y≥3

Plotting the inequality on two dimensional xy plane

The solution set through graph is attached below.

One possible solution is

x=5 field goals

y=5 free throw

⇒In a game I have made 4 field goals and 3 free throws. So total number of points scored in game will be 4×2+3=11 points.

2x+y>3 describes the low end, presuming that you have defined to mean the number of field goals and to mean the number of free throws. yet your best game was 15, so the values must also satisfy 2x+y

When Mrs. Stewart makes pie dough, she uses 2/3 cup of shortening for every 2 1/2 cups of flour which proportion could be used t
n200080 [17]

Answer:

She will use the ratio shortening to flour as 4 : 15

Step-by-step explanation:

When Mrs. Stewart makes pie dough, she uses \dfrac{2}{3} cups of shortening for every 2\dfrac{1}{2} = \dfrac{5}{2} cups of flour.

So, for each \dfrac{2}{3} cup of shortening she uses \dfrac{5}{2} cups of flour.

Then, the ratio of shortening to flour in the mixture of pie dough will be  

\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3} }{\dfrac{5}{2} } = \dfrac{4}{15} i.e. 4 : 15.

Therefore, she will use the ratio shortening to flour as 4 : 15 to find the amount of flour she needs when she uses 5 cups of shortening. (Answer)

AlexFokin [52]

Answer: 7. g = -50, 8. f= 340/6 9. 3 10 .125

Step-by-step explanation:#7 g(3): 4(3)^2 +6 =12^2 +6 = 1444=6= 150. We divide 150 by 3 giving us -50.  #8We start by putting f(6): -3(6)^2 -4(6) +8. We use PEMDAS. -18^2 -24 +8 = _324-24+8 F= 340/6 #9 g(15) = Square root of 15-6=9 and the square root of 9 is 3, therefore, the answer is 3. #10 h (x) = 2^x we plug -3 to 2^-3. It is a negative number and it gives us .125 or 12.5
