9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 4 3-point baskets
  • 7 2-point baskets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of 2-point baskets Nicoli made. Then (x -3) is the number of 3-point baskets. The total number of points is ...

  2x +3(x -3) = 5x -9 = 26

  5x = 35 . . . . . . add 9

  x = 7 . . . . . . . divide by 5

  (x -3) = 4 . . . find the number of 3-point baskets

Jokic made 7 2-point baskets and 4 3-point baskets.

Determine if (-2,6) and (4,12) are solutions to the system of equations:
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Both (-2,6) and (4,12) are solutions to the system.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine whether the two given points represent solutions to our system of equations, we must "plug" thos points into both equations and check that the equality remains valid.

Step 1: Plug (-2,6) into y=x+8

(6) = (-2)+8 = 6

The solution verifies the equation.

Step 2: Plug (-2,6) into 2y=x^2 + 8

2(6) = (-2)^2+8=4+8=12

The solution verifies both equations. Therefore, (-2,6) is a solution to this system.

Now we must check if the second point is also valid.

Step 3: Plug (4,12) into y=x+8

(12) = (4)+8 = 12

Step 4: Plug (4,12) into 2y=x^2 + 8

2(12) = (4)^2+8=16+8=24

The solution verifies both equations. Therefore, (4,12) is another solution to this system.

Geometry help. If x is the image of U under a dilation centered at P, what is the scale factor.
kupik [55]
A dilation pushes all points outwards, a factor of 2 would double the distance (in this case the point V)
every further step is then also an increase of the factor so
1->U (nothing changes)
2->V
3->W
4->X

so the correct answer is 4
