Answer 1

Answer:

1. $\frac{x}{15}$ = 0.85

2. x = 12.75

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we do 12 divided by 15, which is 0.80 (80%). The question is asking how much consecutive free throws is needed to raise it to 85%.

So, and equation we make is:

$\frac{x}{15}$ = 0.85, where x represents the number of free throws.

Now, we solve.

Multiply each side by 15 to solve for x.

x = 12.75

12.75 consecutive free throws is needed to raise the percent to 85%.
