So he makes 14 points per 8 minutes, and you need to find how many points he scores in 21 minutes.

\frac{8}{14} = \frac{21}{x}

To get from 8 to 21, you have to multiply by 2.625

So do the same thing to the denominator; 14 × 2.625 = 36.75

Since 0.75 point is no point so you round down.

Jack scores 36 points in 21 minutes.

♡ Hope this helps! ♡

Answer:

x =36.75 points or approximately 37 points

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

8 minutes         21 minutes

----------------- = ----------------

14 points            x points

Using cross products

8x = 14*21

8x =294

Divide by 8

8x/8 = 294/8

x =36.75 points or approximately 37 points

¿Cuántas soluciones tiene la ecuación 2 + 6 (x - 4) = 3x - 18 + 3x?
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

x is undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + 6(x - 4) = 3x - 18 + 3x

Open the bracket

2 + 6x - 24 = 3x - 18 + 3x

collect the like terms

6x -3x - 3x = -18 +24 - 2

0x = 4

x = 4/0

x is undefined

Answer is option b)

<em>Answer is </em><em>given below with explanations</em><em>. </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

a \: walking \: path \: is \: represented \: by \:  \\ y =  - 4x - 6 \\ 4x + y + 6 = 0 \\ given \: that \\ a \: new \: path \: will \: be \: built \: perpendicular  \\ \: to \:  \: the \: walking \: path \\ the \: equation \: of \: the \: line \: perpendicular \: to \\ 4x + y + 6 = 0 \: is \\ x - 4y + k = 0 \\ since \: it \: passes \: through \: ( - 4,10) \\ substitute \: x \:  =  - 4\: and \: y = 10 \: in \: required \: equation \\  - 4 - 4(10) + k = 0 \\ k = 44 \\ then \: the \: equation \: is \\ x - 4y + 44 = 0 \\ adding \: 4y \: on \: both \: sides \\ x + 44 = 4y \\ dividing \: by \: 4 \: on \: both \: sides \\ y =  \frac{x}{4}  + 11 \\ y =  \frac{1}{4} x + 11 \\ so \: the \: answer \: is \: option \: b) \:   \frac{1}{4} x + 11

Please help explanation if possible
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

612 adults

361 students

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, set two equations:

Let x be number of adults and y be number of students.

As there are in total 937 people, the equation would be the sum of both adults and children:

x+y=937

x=937-y  ...... ( 1 )

As the total sale amount is $1109, the equation would be to add up the ticket fee:

2x+0.75y=1,109  ...... ( 2 )

Put ( 1 ) into ( 2 ):

2(937-y)+0.75y=1,109

1874-2y+0.75y=1,109

-1.25y=-765

y=763/1.25

y=612

Put y into ( 1 ):

x=973-612

x=361

Therefore there are 612 adults and 361 students.
