RUDIKE [14]3 years ago

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

If George is 33 1/3% richer than Pete, than Pete is what percent poorer than George?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

George is 33\frac{1}{3}% (\frac{100}{3}%) richer than Pete. Let Pete's percentage of wealth be 100%.

Thus George percentage of wealth = 100% + \frac{100}{3}%

                                                           = \frac{400}{3}%

                                                           = 133\frac{1}{3}%

Pete's percent poorer than George can be determined by;

                                                           = (\frac{100}{3}) ÷ (\frac{400}{3} ) × 100

                                                           = (\frac{100}{3}) × \frac{3}{400} ×100

                                                           = 0.25 × 100

                                                           = 25%

Pete is 25% poorer than George.

Answer:

Point-slope form: y + 3= -1(x + 4)

Slope-intercept form: y = -1x - 7

y = m * x + b,

where:

m is the slope; and

b is the intercept of the y-axis.
