Answer:

He made 5 2-pointers and 4 3-pointers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of 2-pointers he scored.

Let y = number of 3 pointers he scored.

The total number of shots he made is x + y, and it it equals 9.

The first equation is

x + y = 9

The total number of points he scored on 2-pointers is 2x. The total number of points he scored on 3-pointers is 3y. The total number of points he scored with 2-pointers and 3-pointers is 2x + 3y. It equals 22.

The second equation is

2x + 3y = 22

We have a system of 2 equations.

x + y = 9

2x + 3y = 22

We will use the substitution method.

Solve the first equation for x.

x = 9 - y

Now substitute 9 - y in for x in the second equation.

2x + 3y = 22

2(9 - y) + 3y = 22

18 - 2y + 3y = 22

y + 18 = 22

y = 4

Now we substitute 4 for y in the first equation and solve for x.

x + y = 9

x + 4 = 9

x = 5

Answer: He made 5 2-pointers and 4 3-pointers

Check:

5 2-pointers and 4 3-popinters are a total of 9 shots, so the number of shots is correct.

Now we check the number of points.

5 * 2 + 4 * 3 = 10 + 12 = 22

22 points is the correct total.

Our answer is correct.

Which of the following is the graph of:<br>(x-3)^2+(y+1)^2=9?​
Marianna [84]
<h3>Answer: Choice A</h3>

center = (3, -1)

radius = 3

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

Explanation:

Rewrite the y+1 as y-(-1). Rewrite the 9 as 3^2

Then compare to the general form (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2 = r^2

You should find that h = 3, k = -1 and r = 3.

The center is (h, k) = (3,-1) and the radius is r = 3.

Choice A matches with that description.

Solve the system of equations -3x+7y=-18 and 4x-4y=8 by combining the equations.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

\huge \colorbox{red}{(x,y)=(-1,-3)}

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply first equation by 4 and second by 3 respectively:

\begin{cases} \displaystyle - 12x + 28y =  - 72 \\   \:  \: \displaystyle  \: 12x - 12y = 24 \end{cases}

combine the equations:

\underline{ \begin{cases} \displaystyle - 12x + 28y =  - 72 \\   \:  \: \displaystyle  \: 12x - 12y = 24 \end{cases}} \\  \displaystyle16y =  - 48

divide both sides by -48:

\displaystyle \:  \frac{16y}{16}  =  \frac{ - 48}{16}  \\ y =  - 3

substitute the value of y to the second equation

\displaystyle \: 4x - 4. - 3 = 8

simplify multiplication:

\displaystyle \: 4x  + 12 = 8

cancel 12 from both sides:

\displaystyle \: 4x =  - 4

divide both sides by 4

\displaystyle \:  \frac{4x}{4}  =  \frac{ - 4}{4}  \\ x =  - 1

therefore our solution is

\displaystyle (x,y)=(-1,-3)
