Increasing miles in the month ( proportional of miles which he rides in the month
Answer and solution below:
(-3, 5)
Use the numbers subtracted from the x and y terms as the x and y points. Because the x number is positive, it must be minus a negative and thus the 3 is negative. <span />
Let us assume the amount of baskets Joe scored = x baskets.
4 times of x is 4x.
4x+x = 5x.
Therefore, Peter scored = 5x.
Together they scored = 32 baskets.
Sum of Peter score and Joe score = 32.
x+5x = 32.
6x = 32.
Dividing both sides by 6, we get
x = 32/6
= 16/3.
x= 16/3.
<h3>Joe scored = 16/3 baskets.</h3><h3>Peter scored = 5 × 16/3 = 80/3 baskets.</h3>
