At a high school basketball game the Lions and the Eagles are playing. The Lions attempted 18 free throws and made 10, attempted

51 two-point shots and made 21, and attempted 14 three-point shots and made 4. The Eagles attempted 20 free throws and made 9, attempted 45 two-point shots and made 10, and attempted 14 three-point shots and made 6.a.What is the free throw percentage for the Lions? b.What is the free throw percentage for the Eagles? c.What is the field goal percentage (two-point and three-point shots combined) for the Lions? d.What is the field goal percentage (two-point and three-point shots combined) for the Eagles? e.How many points did the Lions score?f.How many points did the Eagles score?g.Which team won the basketball game?

Answer:

(a) 55.6%

(b) 45.0%

(c) 38.5%

(d) 27.1%

(e) 64

(f) 47

(g) The Lions

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Free throw % for Lions is

\dfrac{10}{18}\times 100\% = 55.6\%

(b) Free throw % for Eagles is

\dfrac{9}{20}\times100\% = 45\%

(c) For the Lions, they attempted a total of 51 + 14 = 65 field goals and made 21 + 4 = 25.

Field goal % for Lions is

\dfrac{25}{65}\times100\% = 38.5\%

(d) For the Eagles, they attempted a total of 45 + 14 = 59 field goals and made 10 + 6 = 16.

Field goal % for Eagles is

\dfrac{16}{59}\times100\% = 27.1\%

(e) Total points by Lions = (10 × 1) + (21 × 2) + (4 × 3) = 10 + 42 + 12 = 64

(f) Total points by Eagles = (9 × 1) + (10 × 2) + (6 × 3) = 9 + 20 + 18 = 47

(g) The Lions won because they had more points.

Solve the equation by completing the square. 0=4x^2-72x
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to make sure that the leading coefficient is a 1.  Ours is a 4, so we need to factor it out, leaving us with

4(x^2-18x)=0

To complete the square, take half the linear term, square it, then add it to both sides.  But don't forget about that 4 hanging around out front, refusing to be ignored.  Our linear term is 18.  Half of 18 is 9, and 9 squared is 81.  Add 81 into the parenthesis, but what we REALLY added in was 4*81 which is 324:

4(x^2-18x+81)=324

To solve this, we need to get the x terms all by themselves.  So let's divide both sides by 4 to get

x^2-18x+81=81

The process of completing the square created a perfect square binomial on the left.  We will state this binomial now:

(x-9)^2=81

We isolate the x term by taking the square root of both sides:

x - 9 = ±9

From that we have 2 equations:

x - 9 = 9 and x - 9 = -9

Which means that x = 18 or x = 0

Can someone help me with this Geometry problem, please?
Doss [256]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

72


Discussion:

Total Surface area = area of pyramid base + 4 ( area of triangular face)

In our case this becomes

                                 4*4                               + 4(  (1/2) (4)(7) )  =

                                 = 16 + (2)(4)(7)

                                 = 16 + 56        

                                 = 72

which is the first choice.  

Note: the area of a triangular face was computed using (1/2) b h, which in our case is

(1/2) (4) (7)


Thank you,

MrB

Using traditional methods, it takes 95 hours to receive a basic flying license. A new license training method using Computer Aid
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the technique performs differently than the traditional method.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

H_{0} = 95

The alternate hypotesis is:

H_{1} \neq 95

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

A researcher used the technique with 260 students and observed that they had a mean of 94 hours. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 6.

This means, respectively, that n = 260, X = 94, \sigma = 6

The test-statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{94 - 95}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{260}}}

z = -2.69

The pvalue is:

2(P(Z < -2.69))

P(Z < -2.69) is the pvalue of Z when X = -2.69, which looking at the z-table, is 0.0036

2*(0.0036) = 0.0072

0.0072 < 0.01, which means that the null hypothesis is accepted, that is, there is not sufficient evidence to support the claim that the technique performs differently than the traditional method.
