Please dont put question mark on these they dont make sense so make thi sbetter!
Please!
Answer:
He made 5 2-pointers and 4 3-pointers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of 2-pointers he scored.
Let y = number of 3 pointers he scored.
The total number of shots he made is x + y, and it it equals 9.
The first equation is
x + y = 9
The total number of points he scored on 2-pointers is 2x. The total number of points he scored on 3-pointers is 3y. The total number of points he scored with 2-pointers and 3-pointers is 2x + 3y. It equals 22.
The second equation is
2x + 3y = 22
We have a system of 2 equations.
x + y = 9
2x + 3y = 22
We will use the substitution method.
Solve the first equation for x.
x = 9 - y
Now substitute 9 - y in for x in the second equation.
2x + 3y = 22
2(9 - y) + 3y = 22
18 - 2y + 3y = 22
y + 18 = 22
y = 4
Now we substitute 4 for y in the first equation and solve for x.
x + y = 9
x + 4 = 9
x = 5
Answer: He made 5 2-pointers and 4 3-pointers
Check:
5 2-pointers and 4 3-popinters are a total of 9 shots, so the number of shots is correct.
Now we check the number of points.
5 * 2 + 4 * 3 = 10 + 12 = 22
22 points is the correct total.
Our answer is correct.
Answer:
False, 5 is not a factor of 54.
Answer:
8 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
The balance is in equilibrium, so the weights of the two sides are equal.
Let the weight of a square be s.
Left side: 2s + 4
Right side: s + 3(4) = s + 12
The weights are equal, so we set the two expressions equal.
2s + 4 = s + 12
s = 8
Answer: The weight of a square is 8 grams.
Question 2: The first step was the combine the like terms; in this example he is subtracting the 3x on both sides of the =.
