A basketball team played 15 games and won 80% of them. If the team expects to play 30 games in all, how many more games must it

win to finish the season with a 90% winning percentage?

So 80% of 15 games won equal 12 games won and 3 lost. This is because 15/10 = 1.5 and 1.5 x 8 =12.
For 30, you do the exact same thing but with 90% instead. 30/10 = 3. 3 x 9 = 27.
So they need to have won 27 games to get a 90% winning percentage out of 30 games.
But since the question asks how many MORE games they need to play, it'll be 27-12 = 15.
So they need to win 15 more games to get a 90% winning percentage

What is the inverse function of f(x)=4x-7
evablogger [386]

To find the inverse, turn the equation into x=4y-7 and solve for y. The inverse would be y=1/4x+7/4, or f(x)=1/4x+7/4. I hope this helps!

Mhanifa please help with this I find it super difficult! Thanks! I will mark brainliest! Random answers will be reported !

Answer:

a)

The point that is equidistant to all sides of a triangle is called the <u>incenter</u>.

The incenter is located at the intersection of bisectors of the interior angles of a triangle.

b)

The point that is equidistant to all vertices of a triangle is called the <u>circumcenter</u>.  

The circumcenter is located at the intersection of perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle.

c)

<em>See the attachment</em>

The blue lines and their intersection shows the incenter.

The red lines and their intersection shows the circumcenter.

As we see the red point- the <u>circumcenter </u>is closer to vertex B.

Find derivative of y=(-3x^5+1)^3
sattari [20]

Use the chain rule:

\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=3(-3x^5+1)^2\frac{\mathrm d[-3x^5+1]}{\mathrm dx}=3(-3x^5+1)^2(-15x^4)=\boxed{-45x^4(1-3x^5)^2}

1) Given: circle k(O), ED= diameter ,m∠OEF=32°, m(arc)EF=(2x+10)° Find: x
qaws [65]

1. The major arc ED has measure 180 degrees since ED is a diameter of the circle. The measure of arc EF is (2x+10)^\circ, so the measure of arc DF is

m\widehat{DF}=360^\circ-180^\circ-(2x+10)^\circ=(170-2x)^\circ

The inscribed angle theorem tells us that the central angle subtended by arc DF, \angle DOF, has a measure of twice the measure of the inscribed angle DEF (which is the same angle OEF) so

m\angle DOF=2m\angle OEF=64^\circ

so the measure of arc DF is also 64 degrees. So we have

170-2x=64\implies106=2x\implies\boxed{x=53}

###

2. Arc FE and angle EOF have the same measure, 56 degrees. By the inscribed angle theorem,

m\angle EOF=2m\angle EDF\implies56^\circ=2m\angle EDF\implies m\angle EDF=28^\circ

Triangle DEF is isosceles because FD and ED have the same length, so angles EFD and DEF are congruent. Also, the sum of the interior angles of any triangle is 180 degrees. It follows that

m\angle EFD+m\angle EDF+m\angle DEF=180^\circ\implies\boxed{m\angle EFD=76^\circ}

Triangle OFE is also isosceles, so angles EFO and FEO are congruent. So we have

m\angle EFO+m\angle FEO+m\angle EOF=180^\circ\implies\boxed{m\angle EFO=62^\circ}

What is 2. 3/6 +1/6 +1 2/3
Kaylis [27]
3/6+1/6+1 2/3
Make 1 2/3 into an improper fraction:
5/3
Give them all common denominators by multiplying both sides of 5/3 by 2:
10/6
Then the question becomes:
3/6+1/6+10/6
Now you add the numerators and the denominator stays the same:
14/6
Now you can simplify by dividing both sides by 2:
7/3
Now you can make it a mixed number:
2 1/3

Hope this helps :)
