Answer:

$\frac{5}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$5x - 2y = 13 \\ 5x - 13 = 2y \\ 2y = 5x - 13 \\ y = \frac{5}{2} x - \frac{13}{2} \\ equating \: it \: with \\ y = mx + b \\ slope(m) = \frac{5}{2}$

Allison plays basketball and last season she made a total of 87 shots (two- or three- point shots). Her points total was 191. Ho

yarga [219]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of 2 point shots be t.

Let the number of 3 point shots be h.

Allison made 87 shots and scored 191 total points. This implies two things:

t + h = 87 ________(1)

2t + 3h = 191 ______(2)

Let us eliminate t by multiplying (1) by 2 and subtracting from (2):

=> 2t + 3h = 191

- 2t + 2h = 174

h = 17

Therefore, she made 17 three point shots.

Solve fI the one variable using the distriputive property -6(2+a)=-48

Sloan [31]

Distribute
-12 -6a = -48
Add 12 to isolate -6a
-6a = -36
Divide by -6 on both sides to isolate a
a = 6
