Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Salma and Jared each threw 5 darts at the target shown. Salma scored 19 points by landing 2 darts in A and 3 in B. Jared scored 17 points by landing 1 dart in A and 4 in B. How many points are given for a dart landing in A?
this can be solved using simultaneous equation. Two equations can be formed from the question
2a + 3b = 19 equation 1
1a + 4b = 17 equation 2
Multiply equation 2 by 2
2a + 8b = 34 equation 3
Subtract equation 1 from 3
5b = 15
divide both sides of the equation by 5
b = 3
Substitute for b in equation 1
2a + 3(3) = 19
2a = 9 = 19
collect like terms
2a = 10
divide both sides of the equation by 2
a = 5
30 degrees is what the answer is because it says it in the question
We need to look at factors of 2, which are only 2 and 1... How do we get them to add to -3? Well, they have to be negative.
-2 + -1 = -3
What about the multiplication? A negative × a negative = a positive, so
-2 × -1 = 2
So your answer is
-2 and -1
My answer would be (0,5) because that seems to be where this scatter plot starts.
Hope this helps!
