A basketball player scored 29 points in a game. The number of three-point field goals the player made was 29 less than three tim
jek_recluse [69]
If you let x represent the number of free throws.         
let y represent the number of two-point field goal.         
let z represent the number of three-point shots made.

Then the correct system of linear equations is as follows: 

x + 2y + 3z = 29 (The total number of points scored is 29.)
z = 3x - 29 (The number of 3-pointers was 29 less than 3 times the number of free throws.)
2y = z + 15 (Twice the number of 2-point shots made was 15 more than the number of 3-pointers.) 

Solution:
This basketball player scored 10 points via free throws (10 at 1 point each), 16 points via 8 two-point shots made, and 3 points via 1 three-point shots made. So, in the choice its letter D.

Segment XZ is bisected by point Y. If XY= 12x, and the measure of XZ= 18x-6, solve for x.​
NeX [460]

let's bear in mind that Y is a bisecting point, so it's really cutting XZ into two equal halves.

\bf \underset{\textit{\Large 18x-6}}{\boxed{X}\stackrel{12x}{\rule[0.35em]{14em}{0.25pt}} Y\stackrel{12x}{\rule[0.35em]{14em}{0.25pt}}\boxed{Z}} \\\\\\ 12x+12x = 18x-6\implies 24x=18x-6 \\\\\\ 6x=-6\implies x=\cfrac{-6}{6}\implies x=-1
