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

If the clothing maker bought 500 m2 of this fabric, how much money did he lose? Use 1tepiz=0.625dollar and 0.9144m=1yard.
Ivanshal [37]
1 yard^2 = 0.8361m^2.? 

<span>The solution to the problem is as follows:

So he spent (.625 x 400) = $250.00 per m^2. </span>
He paid out (500 x 250) = $125,000 on the deal. 
He received (500 / 0.8361) = 598.014592 yard^2 of fabric. 
That would have cost (598.014592 x 120) = $71,761.75 locally. 
He lost (125,000 - 71,761.75) = $53,238.25 on the deal. 

<span>You can rework with the incorrect conversion factor.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

1) y = 1x + 95.50
x = number of bandanas

2) y = (1 • 50) + 95.50
$145.50 for 50 bandannas

3) 116.50 = 1x + 95.50
get x by itself

116.50 = 1x+ 95.50
-95.50 -95.50

21 = 1x
divide by 1
21 = x
you get 21 bandannas when you pay $116.50
