Complete Question

In the first half of a basketball game, a player scored 9 points on free throws and then scored a number of 2-point shots. In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half. Which expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game?

a) 2x + 3x + 9

b) 2x + 3 + 9

c) 2x + 3x + 9x

d) 2 + 3x + 9

Answer:

a) 2x + 3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of points shots a player scores = x

In a free throw, the player scored 9 points = 9

The player also scored a number of 2-point shots = 2x

In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half = 3x

The expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game =

2x + 3x + 9

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of packages of paper towels.

Each package of paper towels costs $2.79.

Then x packages of paper towels cost $2.79x.

Hence, a function f(x) is

f(x)=2.79x

Practically, you can buy 0 packages, 1 package, 2 packages and so on, only whole numbers of packages, so practical domain is all whole numbers.

A soft drink machine outputs a mean of 27 ounces per cup. The machine's output is normally distributed with a standard deviation
Rzqust [24]

Answer:  0.6065

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The machine's output is normally distributed with

\mu=27\text{ ounces per cup}

\sigma=3\text{ ounces per cup}

Let x be the random variable that represents the output of machine .

z-score : z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x= 21 ounces

z=\dfrac{21-27}{3}\approx-2

For x= 28 ounces

z=\dfrac{28-27}{3}\approx0.33

Using the standard normal distribution table , we have

The p-value : P(21

P(z

Hence, the probability of filling a cup between 21 and 28 ounces=  0.6065

ira [324]
Solve the area of the whole circle since in an hour, the minute hand covers the whole clock
assuming that the minute hand reaches all the way out to the edge of the clock


the minute hand is the radius
area=pi times r^2
r=5
5^2=25
area=pi times 25
area=25pi

aprox pi=3.14
25 times 2.14=78.5

area=78.5 in^2
