Answer:

She would have scored 75 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Points scored in a basketball game vary directly with shots taken.

This means that this question can be solved by proportions, using a rule of three.

How many would she have scored if she takes 60 shots?

Using a rule of three:

50 points - 40 shots

x points - 60 shots

Applying cross multiplication:

40x = 50*60

Dividing both sides by 40

x = 50*1.5 = 75

She would have scored 75 points.

Answer:

D. y = -5^x – 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula  y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 )  to find the line perpendicular to  − x + 5 y = 14 .

y = − 5 x − 27                         PERPENDICULAAR

...................................................................................................................................................

Find the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula  y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 )  to find the line parallel to  − x + 5 y = 14 .

y = 1 /5 x − 1                             PARALLEL

One number is 8 greater than another. The product of the numbers is 84. Find the numbers.
mario62 [17]

Let x,y be the two numbers.

Given that one number is 8 greater than another.

Let x be the smaller number ans y be the greater number.

That is y=x+8. Let this be the first equation.

And also given that product of the two numbers is 84.

That is x × y = 84, let us plugin y=x+8 here.

x × (x+8) = 84

x²+ 8x -84 = 0.

x²+12x-4x-84 = 0

x(x+12)-4(x+12) =0

(x-4)(x+12)=0

That is x= 4 or -12.

<h3>If x=4 , y= 4+ 8 = 12</h3>

<h3>If x= -12, y= -12+8 = -4 </h3>

Hence two positive numbers corresponding to given conditions are 4,12.

And two negative numbers corresponding to given conditions are -12,-4.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope it may help you!!
