Robert is a high school basketball player. In a particular game, he made some three point shots and some free throws (worth one

point each). Robert made a total of 9 shots altogether and scored a total of 23 points. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of three point shots Robert made and the number of free throws he made. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answer:

let t = number of three-point shots

let f = number of free throw shots

Step-by-step explanation:

t + f = 9      (he made a total of 9 shots altogether)

3t + 1f = 23   (number of shots multiplied by their point value)

substitution method:   t = 9 - f

                                    3(9 - f) + f = 23

                                     27 - 3f + f = 23

                                      -2f = -4

                                         f = 2

find 't':                               t + 2 = 9

                                         t = 7

A segment with endpoints A(2,6) and C(5,9) is partitioned by a point B such that AB and BC form a 3:1 ratio. Find B​
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The coordinate of point B is (4, 8.25)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the coordinates of point B

To do this, we are to use the section internal division formula as follows;

(x,y) = (nx1 + mx2)/(m + n) , (ny1 + my2)/(m + n)

In this case;

(x1,y1) = (2,6)

(x2,y2) = (5,9)

(m,n) = (3,1)

Substituting these values into the section formula, we have;

(x,y) = (1(1) + 3(5))/(1 + 3) , (1(6) + 3(9))/3 + 1)

(x,y) = (16/4, 33/4)

(x,y) = (4,8.25)
