Answer:
2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent a 2-point basket, and y represent a 3-point basket.
Basket equation: x + y = 16
Point equation 2x + 3y = 39
Solve using system of equations:
if x + y = 16, then x = 16 - y
Plug into the second equation:
2(16-y) + 3y = 39
32 - 2y + 3y = 39
32 + y = 39
y = 7
So the number of 3-point baskets scored was 7. Hope this helps, let me know if there’s a step you don’t understand! :)
Answer: 8/15
Step-by-step explanation: In order to determine the fraction of the total snow cones you first need to determine the denominator. This is the bottom number of the fraction and is the total of all of the snow cones sold. 8 + 7 = 15 total snow cones sold
Your fraction of blueberry snow cones sold is 8 over 15, or 8/15.
