Given:
Cory made 21 of the 60 baskets she attempted.
Krista made 16 out of 40 baskets she attempted.
Paul made 17 of the 50 baskets she attempted.
Sally 11 of the 55 she attempted.
To find:
Who had the greatest percentages of baskets made?
Solution:
We know that,
Using this formula, we get
From the above percentages 40% is maximum.
Therefore, Krista has greatest percentage of baskets made.
You can simplify the right side. Then, you need to take cube roots.
(m -4)³ = 1/(1/8) . . . rule of exponents
(m -4)³ = 8 . . . . . . .simplify
m -4 = ∛8 . . . . . . . take cube roots
m -4 = 2 . . . . . . . . use your calculator or knowledge to find ∛8
m = 6 . . . . . . . . . . add 4
The solution is m = 6.
_____
If you subtract the right side, you get a function of m that is zero when m has the right value. This graph shows that value is m = 6.
