Answer:

x = 12 ( two points shots )

y = 7 ( three points shots )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s call "x" two points shots, and "y" three points shots, then

x + y = 19

2*x + 3*y = 45

We have to solve a two-equation system for x and y

y = 19 - x

2*x + 3 * ( 19 - x ) = 45

2*x + 57 - 3*x = 45

- x = 45 - 57

-x = - 12

x = 12

And y = 19 - 12

y = 7

The Big Falcon Rocket (BFR or Starship) from Space X can carry approximately 220,000 pounds. If they only carried $100 bills, ho

kifflom [539]

Answer:

$9,979,032,100 or $9.979 billion

Step-by-step explanation:

The approximate weight of a $100 bill is 1 gram.

All of the calculations bellow assume that the volume of the bills would not be an issue and only concerns weight.

1 pound is equivalent to approximately 453.59237 grams.

The weight in grams that the Big Falcon Rocket can carry is:

$W= 220,000*453.59237=99,790,321.4\ g$

Since each bill weighs 1 gram, the number of bills it could carry, rounded to nearest whole bill is 99,790,321. The total amount it could carry is:

$A=99,790,321*\$100=\$9,979,032,100$
