Answer:
The improper fraction 8/5 can be changed to the mixed number 1 3/5 by dividing the numerator (8) by the denominator (5). This gives a quotient of 1 and a remainder of 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
7x + 2y = 48
7x + (2x3) =48
7x + 6 = 48
7x = 48 - 6
7x = 42
--> x = 6
X+y=23 (x and y added equal the number of baskets made)
2x+3y=53 (since each basket is worth a certain amount of points, x and y must be multiplied by their amount of baskets and added together to get the total number of points)
Hope this helps!
