A basketball player scored 32 times during one game. She scored a total of 57 points, 2 for each two- point shots and 1 point fo

r each free throw. How many 2- point shots did she make? How many free throws? How many two-point shots?

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

32*2 is the maximum amount that we assume the basketball player can score. 64 is 7 away from 57 so we know that the basketball player scored 7 1 point. That means the basketball player scored 25 2 point shots.

What we did was find out the maximum possible score. Then we subtracted what score the basketball player got from the highest possible score. Now we find the difference of the scores. We notice that the two types of points has a difference of 1.

Answer:48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Amar wants 12 tablespoons of sugar in water.

Amar has teaspoon whose four times is equivalent to 1 tablespoon

i.e. $4\ \text{teaspoon}\equiv 1\ \text{tablespoon}$

therefore

$12 tablespoon is 4\times 12$

$\Rightarrow 4\times 12$

$\Rightarrow 48\ \text{teaspoons}$

So, amar need to add $48\ \text{teaspoons}$ for lemonade

Which of the following is the inverse of N(r) if N(r)=8r+17

BaLLatris [955]

$N=8r+17 \\ 8r=N-17 \\ r= \frac{N-17}{8} \\ Inverse \ is \ \frac{r-17}{8}$

What's the surface area ratio & the volume ratio??<br><br> please help me ASAP!!

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volumes of two spheres A and B = 648 cm³ and 1029 cm³

Things to remember:

1). Scale factor of two objects = $\frac{r_1}{r_2}$ [ $r_1$ and $r_2$ are the radii of two circles]

2). Area scale factor = $\frac{(r_1)^2}{(r_2)^2}$

3). Volume scale factor = $\frac{(r_1)^3}{(r_2)^3}$

Volume scale factor Or Volume ratio = $\frac{V_A}{V_B}$

$\frac{(r_1)^3}{(r_2)^3}= \frac{648}{1029}$

$\frac{r_1}{r_2}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{648}{1029} }$

$\frac{r_1}{r_2}=\frac{6(\sqrt[3]{3})}{7(\sqrt[3]{3})}$

$\frac{r_1}{r_2}=\frac{6}{7}$

Therefore, scale factor = $\frac{r_1}{r_2}=\frac{6}{7}$

≈ 6 : 7

Area scale factor Or area ratio = $(\frac{r_1}{r_2})^2=(\frac{6}{7})^2$

= $\frac{36}{49}$

≈ 36 : 49

Volume scale factor or Volume ratio = $\frac{648}{1029}$

= $\frac{216}{343}$

≈ 216 : 343
