1. 81 1/2 = 163/2
2. 32 1/5 - 64 1/3 =
483/15 - 965/15 =
-482/15 or -32 2/15
3. 16 1/4 = 65/4
4. 49 1/2 + 27 1/3 =
99/2 + 82/3 =
297/6 + 164/6 =
461/6 or 76 5/6
Multiply the top one by 3 for x, so you can eliminate x and find y
then plug in the y into one of the equations to find x
There were 18 one point shots and 37 two point shots.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of one point shots be x and the number of two point shots be y .
So we have the system:
x + y = 55
x + 2y = 92
Subtract the first equation from the second, we get:
0 + y = 92 - 55 = 37.
y = 37.
From equation 1 we have x = 55 - y
therefore x = 55 - 37 = 18.
