A basketball player scored 26 points in one game. In basketball, some baskets are worth 3 points, some are worth 2 points, and f

ree-throws are worth 1 point. He scored four more 2-point baskets than he did 3-point baskets. The number of free-throws equaled the sum of the number of 2-point and 3-point shots made. How many free-throws, 2-point shots, and 3-point shots did he make?

Answer:

3 points = 2

2 points = 6

1 point = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total point scored = 26

Let number of 3 point basket = x

Number of 2 point basket = x + 4

Number of free throws = x + x + 4 = 2x + 4

Hence,

Total 3 points = 3x

Total 2 points 2(x + 4)

Total free throw points = 2x + 4

3x + 2(x + 4) + 2x + 4 = 26

3x + 2x + 8 + 2x + 4 = 26

7x + 12 = 26

7x = 26 - 12

7x = 14

x = 2

Number of 3 points = x = 2

2 points = (x+4) = 2+4 = 6

1 point = (2x+ 4) = 2(2) + 4 = 8

Find the Value of k that will make the function f(x) continuous everywhere.​
cricket20 [7]

well, if that function f(x) were to be continuos on all subfunctions, that means that whatever value 7x + k has when x = 2, meets or matches the value that kx² - 6 has when x = 2 as well, so then 7x + k = kx² - 6 when f(2)

f(x)= \begin{cases} 7x+k,&x\leqslant 2\\ kx^2-6&x > 2 \end{cases}\qquad \qquad f(2)= \begin{cases} 7(2)+k,&x\leqslant 2\\ k(2)^2-6&x > 2 \end{cases} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ 7(2)+k~~ = ~~k(2)^2-6\implies 14+k~~ = ~~4k-6 \\\\\\ 14~~ = ~~3k-6\implies 20~~ = ~~3k\implies \cfrac{20}{3}=k

Ill mark brainliest!!
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

$60

Step-by-step explanation:

So from the question, we need to find the fixed amount for the tv's. So we have to make an equation, and don't forget to add the extended warranties:

11(x + 25) = 935

x will represent a tv, and the 25 is the extended warranty for a tv, since the questions states 11 tv's with warranties is 935, the equation will look like that. Now lets slove:

11(x + 25) = 935

multiply

11x + 275 = 935

subtract 275 from both sides

11x = 660

divide both sides by 11

x = 60, each tv is $60
