<h2>Answer:</h2>

The number of two pointers made are: 6

and the number of three pointers made are: 2

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let the number of two pointers be : x

and the number of three pointers be : y.

The wildcats basketball team scored 18 points in the first half of the game.

This means that:

  2x+3y=18-------(1)

Also, a total of eight shots were made.

This means that:

x+y=8

i.e.

x=8-y--------(2)

On putting equation (2) in equation (1) we have:

2(8-y)+3y=18

16-2y+3y=18

16+y=18

y=18-16

i.e.

                  y=2

On putting the value of y in equation (2) we have:

  x=8-2

i.e.

          x=6

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

we can translate the given statement into-8 ≥ -5x + 2 > -38.

In this case, we can dissect the inequality into two parts:

-8 ≥ -5x + 2  and -5x + 2 > -38

Step-by-step explanation:

-8 ≥ -5x + 2 5x ≥ 10x ≥ 2 (closed dot)

-5x + 2 > -38 5x < 40x < 8 (open dot)

The answer then is c) number line with a closed dot on 2 and an open dot on 8 and shading in between
