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

To rent a uhal truck for the day, it cost 20 dollars per day plus 1 dollar for every mile driven Write an algebraic expression t
valkas [14]

Answer:

The equation is R = 20d + m(1)

Where R is the rental amount in dollars, d is the number of days and m is the number of miles driven

R for 3 days and 1000 miles is $1,060

Step-by-step explanation:

To properly represent the algebraic expression, we need to assign some variables.

Now, let the rental amount be R, the number of miles driven be m and the number of days rented for is d

Thus, we can say that:

R = 20d+ m(1)

Where R is rental amount, m is the number of miles driven and d is the number of days for which the truck was driven.

Now we are asked to calculate rental amount for 3 days and 1000 miles.

R = 20d + m(1)

R = 20(3) + 1000(1)

R = 60 + 1000

R = $1,060

Solve -1 4/5 x= 9. <br> A) 5 <br> B) 1/5 <br> C) -5 <br> D) -1/5
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Express - 1 \frac{4}{5} as an improper fraction, that is

- \frac{9}{5} x = 9 ( multiply both sides by 5 )

- 9x = 45 ( divide both sides by - 9 )

x = - 5 → C

Find point G on AB such that the ratio of AG to GB is 3:2.
lora16 [44]

Using proportions, the coordinates of point G are given as follows:

(1.8, 1.6).

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

The points A and B are given as follows:

A(-3, 4) and B(5,0).

For this problem, we have that the ratio of AG to GB is 3:2, hence:

AG = 3/5AB

G - A = 3/5(B - A).

The x-coordinate of G is found as follows:

x + 3 = 3/5(5 + 3)

x + 3 = 4.8

x = 1.8.

The y-coordinate of G is found as follows:

y - 4 = 3/5(0 - 4)

y - 4 = -2.4

y = 1.6.

Hence the coordinates of point G are given as follows:

(1.8, 1.6).
