<u>ANSWER:  </u>

Botina has to make 17 successful attempts out of 25 attempts.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given, Juan made 13 out of 20 free throws.

Botina shoots 25 free throws,  

We need find what's the minimum number she has to make in order to have a better free-throw percentage than Juan?

Let, the minimum number of successful throws be x.

Now, percentage of Botina should be greater than percentage of jaun

Percentage of Botina > percentage of Jaun

\begin{array}{l}{\frac{\text {number of successful attempts by botina}}{\text {total number of attempts by botina}} \times} {100>\frac{\text {number of successful atempts by jaun}}{\text {total number of attempts by jaun}} \times 100}\end{array}

\begin{array}{l}{\frac{x}{25} \times 100>\frac{13}{20} \times 100} \\\\ {\frac{x}{25}>\frac{13}{20}} \\\\ {x>25 \times \frac{13}{20}} \\\\ {x>5 \times \frac{13}{4}} \\\\ {x>\frac{65}{4}} \\\\ {x>16.25}\end{array}

As the number of attempts cannot be in decimal values, we have to consider the integer above 16.25 i.e. 17

Hence, botina has to make 17 successful attempts.

Dovator [93]
Heya!!!


Answer to your question:

Let Adam's points be x.

Nick has points =7200=20%of x+x

20/100 *x + x=7200

x/5 +x=7200

6x/5=7200

x= 7200*5/6

x=6000

Adam has 6,000 points.

(2x/3)-(5x/9)-(x/6)-(5x/12)=13/2 this equation is equivalent to:
agasfer [191]

Answer:

-17x=234

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

\dfrac{2x}{3}-\dfrac{5x}{9}-\dfrac{x}{6}-\dfrac{5x}{12}=\dfrac{13}{2}

\dfrac{72x-60x -18x-45x }{108} = \dfrac{13}{2}

\dfrac{-51x }{108} = \dfrac{13}{2}

-102x =    1404

-\dfrac{102x}{6} = \dfrac{1404}{6}

-17x = 234
