Answer:

The total amount Alex spent is $ 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The amount Alex spends on food = 2/3 of his paycheck

The amount Alex spends on coffee = $3

Therefore, we have;

Fraction of the paycheck spent on coffee = 1 - 2/3 = 1/3 of p

The  amount Alex spends on coffee = 1/3 of his paycheck

Therefore, we have;

1/3 × p = $3

p = 3 × $3 = $9

The total amount Alex spent = $ 9

The amount Alex spends on food = 2/3 × $9 = $6.

Tony was Challenged to a half-court shooting competition. For every half-court shot that he makes, he will earn 20 points. For e
Mkey [24]

Answer:

Tony make 4 half-court shots and misses 16 half-court shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Points earned for every successful, half-court shots = 20

Points deducted for missing the shots = 5 or -5

Total number of shots in the game = 20

Final points earned by Tony = 0

According to the question:

Let the number of successful half-court shot be x

And the number of shots missed be 20-x

So,

In terms of points we can re-write it as:

⇒ 20(x)-5(20-x) =0

⇒ 20x-100+5x=0

⇒ 25x-100=0

⇒ 25x-100+100=100

⇒ 25x=100

⇒ \frac{25x}{25} =\frac{100}{25}

⇒ x=\frac{100}{25}

⇒ x=4

Tony make 'x' shots that is 4 and the number of shot he missed is (20-x) =(20-4)=16

Step-by-step explanation:

General line equation: y = mx + c.

2y + 3x = 5

2y = -3x + 5

y = -1.5x + 2.5

Hence m = -1.5 and c = 2.5.
