Answer:

She made 12 two point basket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the number of 2 point basket is x and that of 3 point basket is y.

Based on the question the total numbers of basket is 14, that is x + y = 14 , and the total numbers of points is 30, which helps us with our second equation 2(x) +3(y)=30.

x + y = 14 eqn 1

2(x) +3(y)=30 eqn 2

Using elimination method multiplying eqn 1 by -3 and adding it to equation 2

-3x-3 y = -42 adding to eqn 2 gives

-x= -12

x=12. Which gives the number of the 2 points basket she made .

Can someone please explain the steps to solve these questions.
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Alright! So to solve these questions, you need to find out the difference. You can use ratios to solve this. For example, question #25:

A class had 30 pupils at the beginning of this school term, but now has 5 more pupils. What is the percent of increase?

The question is basically asking how much 5 is in ratio to 30. So just divide 5 (the given amount) by 30 (the total amount). The answer is 0.16, or 16%
