x/10 + x/4 = 21  /*40

4x + 10x = 840

14x = 840

x = 60 = total number of points the team scored

Answer:

Total number of points in game is 60.    

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given in the question:

Let x be the total scored in the game.

Contribution of Brian in the game = \displaystyle\frac{x}{10}

Contribution of Joe in the game = \displaystyle\frac{x}{4}

Total contribution of Brian and Joe in the game = 21

According to the question, the following equation can be used to represent the situation:

\displaystyle\frac{x}{10} + \displaystyle\frac{x}{4} = 21

\displaystyle\frac{7x}{20} = 21\\\\ 7x = 20\times 21\\x = 60

Thus, the total score of the game was 60.

What is the equation of this line
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

y = -\frac{4}{3}x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope-intercept form to write the equation if the line of the graph given.

y = mx + b, where,

b = y-intercept, which is where the line cuts across the y-axis = 4.

m = slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{0 - 4}{3 - 0} = \frac{-4}{3}

Substitute m = ⁴/3 and b = 4, into the slope-intercept formula to get the equation of the line:

y = mx + b

y = -\frac{4}{3}x + 4

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is four times the length of one of the legs. The length of the other leg is 1500⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√ fee
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is just playing with the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 with a and b as legs and c as the hypotenuse.

Let's say a is equal to 1500 so then c is 4 times b

1500^2 + b^2 = (4b)^2  Now we just treat this like a normal algebraic expression

2,250,000 = 16b^2 - b^2

2,250,000 = 15b^2

150,000 = b^2

sqrt(150,000) = b

100sqrt(15) = b

You can check this now.

1500^2 + sqrt(150,000)^2 = c^2

sqrt(2,250,000 + 150,000) = c

sqrt(2,400,000) = c

400sqrt(15) = c Which fits the requirement of c = 4b
