Dwayne scored 55 points in the last basketball game, which is 10 points more than his previous personal best. Lebron scored 15 p

oints more than Chris in the same game. Lebron scored the same number of points as Dwayne’s previous personal best. Let d represent the number of points Dwayne scored during his previous personal best and c represent the number of Chris’s points.
a. How many points did Chris score during the game?
b. If these are the only three players who scored, what was the team’s total number of points at the end of the game?

Use tape diagrams to solve the problem.

Answer: a) 30, b) 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Let the number of points Scored by Dwayne be 'd'.

Number of points in the last basket ball game = 55 points

According to question, we get that

d+10=55\\\\d=55-10\\\\d=45

Let the number of points that Chris's score be 'c'.

Number of points Lebron scored = 45

According to question, number of points scored by Chris is given by

c+15=45\\\\c=45-15\\\\c=30

a. How many points did Chris score during the game?

c = 30

b. If these are the only three players who scored, what was the team’s total number of points at the end of the game?

45+45+30=90+30\\\\=120

Hence, a) 30, b) 120

Can you answer #1 and #3 please (find the slope) ASAP
daser333 [38]

To calculate the slope of a line, you only need two points from that line, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

The equation used to calculate the slope from two points is:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

#1:

First point : (5 ,7) = (x1, y1)

Second point : (2, -2) = (x2, y2)

Equation : (-2 - 7) / (2 - 5)

Solve the equation:

(-2 - 7) = -9

(2 - 5) = -3

-9/-3 = 3 (a negative number divided by a negative number gives you a positive number)

The slope of the line in #1 is : 3


#3:

First point : (5, 9) = (x1, y1)

Second point : (5, -2) = (x2, y2)

Equation : (-2 - 9) / (5 - 5)

Solve the equation:

In this case, you don't need to solve anything, because anything divided by zero will give you 0 (5 minus 5 = 0).

The slope of the line in #3 is : 0
