<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.

In a complete sentence, write down a method you could use to determine if an equation is written in the correct way.
Sergio039 [100]

An equation is written in a correct way if the equation is balanced. If you want to find out if the equation is balanced, you have to count how many molecules of each element is present and then just balance the equation on the left side and the right side.
