<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

While taking an online pretest for an algebra class, the distance formula was displayed as shown below.
olga_2 [115]

The calculated distance would be in square units instead of linear units.

Answer: Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Distance Formula itself is actually derived from the Pythagorean Theorem. This is the formula where c is the longest side of a right triangle (also known as the hypotenuse) and a and b are the other shorter sides (known as the legs of a right triangle).

The distance formula is derived by creating a triangle and using the Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse of the triangle is the distance between the two points.

PLEASE HELP WITH ALGEBRA QUESTION NEED ASAP!!
Delvig [45]

Answer:

The function f(x) = ln(x - 4) is graphed the question options

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the the information of the problem

- The graph of a logarithmic has a vertical asymptote at x=4

* That means the curve gets closer and closer to the vertical line x = 4

  but does not cross it

- It contains the point (e+4, 1)

* That means if we substitute x = e + 4 in the equation the value

 of y will be equal to 1

- It has an x-intercept of 5

* That means if we substitute y = 0 in the equation the value of x

  will be equal to 5

* Lets find the right answer

∵ f(x) = ln(x - 4)

* To find the equation of the asymptote let x - 4 = 0

∵ x - 4 = 0

∴ x = 4

∴ f(x) has a vertical asymptote at x = 4

* Lets check the point (e + 4 , 1) lies on the graph of the f(x)

∵ x = e + 4

∴ f(e+4) = ln(e + 4 - 4) = ln(e)

∵ ln(e) = 1

∴ The point (e+4 , 1) lies on the graph of the function f(x)

* To find the x-intercept put y = 0

∵ f(x) = 0

∴ ln(x - 4) = 0

* Change the logarithmic function to the exponential function

- The base of the ln is e

∴ e^0 = x - 4

∵ e^0 = 1

∴ x - 4 = 1 ⇒ add 4 to the both sides

∴ x = 5

* The function f(x) = ln(x - 4) is graphed the question options
