Let x represent a 2-point basket, and y represent a 3-point basket.
Basket equation: x + y = 16
Point equation 2x + 3y = 39
Solve using system of equations:
if x + y = 16, then x = 16 - y
Plug into the second equation:
2(16-y) + 3y = 39
32 - 2y + 3y = 39
32 + y = 39
y = 7
So the number of 3-point baskets scored was 7. Hope this helps, let me know if there’s a step you don’t understand! :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Model:
s = slices
x = pizzas ordered
s = .8(.45x) + .12(.55x)
Now plugin 20 for x and you will get the total number of slices.
s = .8(.45x) + .12(.55x)
s = .8(.45(20)) + .12(.55(20))
s = 204 slices
Note, we could make this model different and smaller but I chose this method because it demonstrates what is going on with the word problem
Answer:A
Step-by-step explanation:
0=-2x^2+x+3
-2x^2+x+3=0
a=-2 b=1 c=3
I am pretty sure it's B 6.25% but I'm not exactly sure
160 was the original price.
We know this because 25% is the same as I think of it as a quarter 25x4=100
So you would have to do 40x4=160
Your welcome.
