Answer:
27 balls
Step-by-step explanation:
If Dianna and Becky stopped 9 out of 10 shots made against them.
It means they allowed in 1 out of 10 shots made against them.
This is best solved using ratios
Proportion of Shots Stopped : Proportion of Shots allowed=9:1
If the other team scores 3 points, it means the number of shots allowed =3
Let x be the number of shots stopped
Number of Shots Stopped : Number of Shots allowed=x:3
Therefore:
9:1=x:3
Cross multiplying
x=9 X 3 =27
Dianna and Becky stopped 27 balls from going into the net,
closed dot is if the number is part of the solution so if it is equal to
and
use open if it is not part of solution as in if it is greater than or less than
so for your picture x greater or equal to -2 it would be a closed dot
The correct equation should look something like this:
y= -1x - 2
Consider the equation for a line:
y = mx + b,
Where ‘m’ is the slope
Where ‘b’ is the y-intercept.
From there you can plug in your known values for ‘m’ and ‘b’, and get the equation above. If you are still not convinced, I suggest you graph the function and observe its slope and y-intercept.
Hope this helps!
