Answer: The system of equations are;

a + b = 9 ———(1)

a + 3b = 23———(2)

Step-by-step Explanation: The variables used here are a and b. Where a represents the number of free throws and b represents the number of three-pointers.

From equation (1), what we have is the total number of shots he has taken altogether which is 9 shots in all. All 9 shots are an addition of free throws and three pointers (that is a + b).

In equation (2), what we have is the points obtainable times the number of shots taken (for each shot). This means if a is a free throw, then 1 times a is equal to number of free throws times 1. Similarly, if b is a three-point throw, then 3 times b is equal to the number of three pointers thrown times 3.

The solution to the equation above gives us,

a = 2 and b = 7

The admission to the fair is $5 and the cost per ride is 50 cents. If his parents give hime $20, write and solve a linear equati
solniwko [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The admission to the fair is $5 and the cost per ride is 50 cents.

Let the number of rides that he can go on be x

If one ride costs 50 cents, x rides will cost 50×x = 50x cents. Converting 50 cents to dollar, it becomes 50/100 = $0.5.

So x rides will cost $0.5x

If his parents gave him $20, he will pay $5 to be admitted into the fair. He would be left with 20- 5 = $15

The equation to find how many rides he can go on will be

0.5x = 15

Since one ride costs $0.5

x rides cost $15

x = 15/0.5 = 30

He can go on 30 rides

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The dimension of the play area written algebraically is y²/2 + 9y

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the be x and the width be y

If the length is to be 9 feet longer than half the width,

hence y/2 + 9 = x

hence dimension of the area = (y/2 + 9) × y = y²/2 + 9y
