A basketball player made 40% of the shots she attempted.if she made 32 baskets, how many shots did she attend?

1 answer:

6 0

32 divde by 2 = 16 (50%)
32 divde by 10 = 3.2 (10%)
16 - 3.2 = 12.8 (40%)
3.2 times 4 = 12.4 (40%)

You would round the number to the nearest whole because you can't make a . of a shot. Therefore the answer would be that she made 12 shots.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf -2.5z+5y-8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sf -6z+(-5.5)+3.5z+5y-2.5$

$\sf -6z-5.5+3.5z+5y-2.5$

$\sf -6z+3.5z+5y-5.5-2.5$

$\sf( -6z+3.5z)$ $\sf (5y)$ $\sf (-5.5-2.5)$

$\sf -2.5z+5y-8$

$\underline{--------------}$

Hope it helps! :)

Can someone help me plseawe

18 meters by 14 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

18 meters by 14 meters

Area of rectangle is base times height (AKA length times width or however you wish to call the dimensions).

This question is a system of equations question. We can make two equations. We know that every rectangle must have 2 "lengths" and 2 "widths" (4 sides in a rectangle). Since Maria only has 64 meters of fencing, we get the equation:

2L+2W = 64

Now we know the area enclosed must be 252 so we have:

L* W = 252

Rewriting the second equation we get:

Plug this into first equation to get:

(multiply everything by L)

Solving the quadratic tells us L can be 18 or 14. Let's consider if L is 18 first by plugging 18 back into the second equation to get 18 * W = 252 which gives us W = 14. If we do the same for when L = 14, we get that W = 18.

Now you might wonder why we have 2 possible combinations, that's because in reality, it doesn't matter which one we label as length (L) or width (W).

Previously the volume of paint consumed was: 20 pints

New paint is available in unit of liters.
