Answer:

The team converted 7 3-point shots, 28 2-point shots, and 17 foul shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a basketball team recently scored a total of 94 points on a combination of 2-point field goals, 3-point field goals, and 1-point foul shots, and altogether, the team made 52 baskets and 11 more 2-pointers than foul shots, to determine how many shots of each kind were made, the following calculations must be performed:

19 x 3 + 22 x 2 + 11 x 1 = 57 + 44 + 11 = 112

9 x 3 + 27 x 2 + 16 x 1 = 27 + 54 + 16 = 97

7 x 3 + 28 x 2 + 17 x 1 = 21 + 56 + 17 = 94

Therefore, the team converted 7 3-point shots, 28 2-point shots, and 17 foul shots.

You have read 4 of the books shown. Which choice shows 2 ways of writing the fraction of these books that you read?
Olegator [25]
  • Total books read: 4
  • Total books in list: 12

So it can be shown as:

\sf \dfrac{read \ books}{total \ books \ in \ list}

\hookrightarrow \sf \dfrac{4}{12}

on simplifying

\hookrightarrow \sf \dfrac{1}{3}

So, option 1 is correct.

Not sure how I would solve this

<h3>Answers:</h3>

The first ordered pair is   ( -4 , -3 )

The second ordered pair is   ( 8, 3 )

=================================================

Explanation:

The first point is (x,-3) where x is unknown. It pairs up with y = -3 so we can use algebra to find x

x-2y = 2

x-2(-3) = 2 ... replace every y with -3; isolate x

x+6 = 2

x = 2-6

x = -4

The first point is (-4, -3)

---------------------------

We'll do something similar for the other point. This time we know x but don't know y. Plug x = 8 into the equation and solve for y

x-2y = 2

8-2y = 2

-2y = 2-8

-2y = -6

y = -6/(-2)

y = 3

The second point is (8, 3)

How do I solve question 6 through 8?<br> Solve for me
rewona [7]

The equations of the functions are y = -4(x + 1)^2 + 2, y = 2(x - 2)^2 + 1 and y = -(x - 1)^2 - 2

<h3>How to determine the functions?</h3>

A quadratic function is represented as:

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

<u>Question #6</u>

The vertex of the graph is

(h, k) = (-1, 2)

So, we have:

y = a(x + 1)^2 + 2

The graph pass through the f(0) = -2

So, we have:

-2 = a(0 + 1)^2 + 2

Evaluate the like terms

a = -4

Substitute a = -4 in y = a(x + 1)^2 + 2

y = -4(x + 1)^2 + 2

<u>Question #7</u>

The vertex of the graph is

(h, k) = (2, 1)

So, we have:

y = a(x - 2)^2 + 1

The graph pass through (1, 3)

So, we have:

3 = a(1 - 2)^2 + 1

Evaluate the like terms

a = 2

Substitute a = 2 in y = a(x - 2)^2 + 1

y = 2(x - 2)^2 + 1

<u>Question #8</u>

The vertex of the graph is

(h, k) = (1, -2)

So, we have:

y = a(x - 1)^2 - 2

The graph pass through (0, -3)

So, we have:

-3 = a(0 - 1)^2 - 2

Evaluate the like terms

a = -1

Substitute a = -1 in y = a(x - 1)^2 - 2

y = -(x - 1)^2 - 2

Hence, the equations of the functions are y = -4(x + 1)^2 + 2, y = 2(x - 2)^2 + 1 and y = -(x - 1)^2 - 2
