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! :)
i-okay,whats yoour problem? maybe i can help :D
Answer:
A monomial is an expression in algebra that contains one term, like 3xy. Monomials include: numbers, whole numbers and variables that are multiplied together, and variables that are multiplied together. A polynomial is a sum of monomials where each monomial is called a term.
The answer is 0.003, because the two "00" in front of the three represent, tenths and hundredths, and the 3 is in the thousandths place<span />
