If you would like to know how many free throws did a basketball player attempted, you can calculate this using the following steps:

75% of x is 84
75% * x = 84
75/100 * x = 84
x = 84 * 100 / 75
x = 112 free throws

The correct result would be 1<span>12 free throws.</span>

The slope of the line below is -2. Use the coordinates of the labeled point to
Vilka [71]

Answer:

We can express the equation for any linear equation with slope -2 and point (x0,y0) as:

y=-2x+(y_0+2x_0)\\\\y-y_0=-2(x-x_0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Incomplete question:

There is no point to complete the equation.

As we have no point to complete the linear equation, we will solve for any given point (x0,y0) and a slope of m=-2.

The linear equation can be written generically as:

y(x)=mx+b\\\\y(x)=-2x+b

If a point, like (x0,y0) belongs to the linear equation, it satisfies its equation. Then:

y_0=-2x_0+b

Then, we can calculate b as:

y_0=-2x_0+b\\\\b=y_0+2x_0

We can express the equation for any linear equation with slope -2 and point (x0,y0) as:

y=-2x+(y_0+2x_0)\\\\y-y_0=-2(x-x_0)

The total cost of a sweater and a pair of pants was $89.47. If the price of the sweater was $8.53 less than the pair of pants, w
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Let S = price of sweater

Let P = price of pants

S + P = 89.47 because that was the total spent

S = P - 8.53   because the sweater is 8.53 less than pants

Substitute P-8.53 in place of S in the

1st equation and solve for P

P - 8.53 + P = 89.47

2P - 8.53 = 89.47     add 8.53 to both sides

2P = 89.47 + 8.53

2P = 98.00  divide both sides by 2

P = 98.00/2

P = $49.00

S = P - 8.53

S = 49.00-8.53

S = $40.47

A sweater costs $40.47 and the pants cost $49.00

Given that sin theta = 1/4, 0
GaryK [48]
Answer: cos(Θ) = (√15) / 4

Explanation:

The question states:

1) sin(Θ) = 1/4

2) 0 < Θ < π / 2

3) find cos(Θ)

This is how you solve it.

1) Use the fundamental identity (in this part I use α instead of Θ, just for facility of wirting the symbols, but they mean the same for the case).

(cos \alpha )^2 + (sin \alpha )^2 =1

2) From which you can find:

(cos \alpha )^2 = 1 - (sin \alpha )^2

3) Replace sin(α) with 1/4

=> (cos \alpha )^2 = 1 - (1/4)^2 = 1 - 1/16 = 15/16

=> cos \alpha =+/- \sqrt{15/16} = +/- (\sqrt{15} )/4

4) Given that the angle is in the first quadrant, you know that cosine is positive and the final answer is:

cos(Θ) = \sqrt{15} /4.

And that is the answer.
