lesya692 [45]

Answer: The approximate values that every player make are,

Tammy = grace = 5.43 baskets

Jenny = 16.30 Baskets

Alex = 11.43 Baskets

Joan = 1.43

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Grace made x baskets.

Then According to the question,

Jenny made baskets = 3x

Alexis made basket = x + 6

Joan made basket = x - 4

Tammy made baskets = x

Since, Altogether the five players made 40 baskets.

⇒ x+ 3x + x + 6 + x - 4 + x = 40

⇒ 7x + 2 = 40

⇒ 7x = 38

⇒ x = 38 / 7 = 5.42857142857 ≈ 5.43

Thus, Grace made baskets= Tammy made baskets = x = 5.43

Jenny made baskets = 3 × x = 16.2857142857 ≈ 16.30

Alexis made basket = x + 6 = 11.4285714286 ≈ 11.43

Joan made basket = x - 4 = 1.42857142857

≈ 1.43

Solve 3x + 23 + x = 7. x = −4 x = 4 x = −0.25 x = 0.25

Maksim231197 [3]

<h2>______________________________</h2><h2>Solve for x | Solution and Explanation </h2>

______________________________________________

Hello! So...

We are given the following:

Solve for x.

$3x+23+x=7$

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

1. Group the like terms.

$3x+x+23=7$

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

2. Add similar elements ( $3x+x=4x$ ).

$4x+23=7$

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

3. Subtract 23 from both sides.

$4x + 23 - 23 = 7 - 23$

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

4. Simplify.

$4x=-16$

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

5. Divide both sides by 4.

$\frac{4x}{4} =\frac{-16}{4}$

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

6. Simplify.

$x=-4$ (aka. Option A)

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

Hope this helps!
