Answer: 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of 2 point baskets made and y be the number of 3 point baskets made

:

1) x + y = 26

:

2) 2x + 3y = 60

:

solve equation 1 for x and substitute in equation 2

:

x = 26 - y

:

2(26 - y) +3y = 60

:

52 -2y +3y = 60

:

y = 8

:

x = 26 - 8 = 18

:

The team made 18 2-point shots

The length of a rectangle is 6 inches more than its width. Its area is 91 square inches. The length is .
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

13 in

Step-by-step explanation:

let w be width then length is w + 6

the area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = length × width , then

A = w(w + 6) = 91 , that is

w² + 6w = 91 ( subtract 91 from both sides )

w² + 6w - 91 = 0 ← in standard quadratic form

(w + 13)(w - 7) = 0 ← in factored form

equate each factor to zero and solve for w

w + 13 = 0 ⇒ w = - 13

w - 7 = 0 ⇒ w = 7

however, w > 0 then w = 7

and length = w + 6 = 7 + 6 = 13 in
