Complete Question
In the first half of a basketball game, a player scored 9 points on free throws and then scored a number of 2-point shots. In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half. Which expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game?
a) 2x + 3x + 9
b) 2x + 3 + 9
c) 2x + 3x + 9x
d) 2 + 3x + 9
Answer:
a) 2x + 3x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of points shots a player scores = x
In a free throw, the player scored 9 points = 9
The player also scored a number of 2-point shots = 2x
In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half = 3x
The expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game =
2x + 3x + 9
Answer:
x =12
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for x
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
16^2 + x^2 = 20^2
256 +x^2 = 400
Subtract 256 from each side
256-256 +x^2 = 400-256
x^2 =144
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) =sqrt(144)
x = 12
Answer:
