Answers:

  • 5 two-pointers
  • 11 three-pointers

=====================================================

Explanation:

x = number of two-pointers made

2x+1 = number of three-pointers made

This is because of the fact that she made one more than twice as many three-pointers than two-pointers.

In other words,

number of three pointers = 2*(number of two pointers) + 1

number of three pointers = 2x + 1

-------------------

If she made x two-pointers, then she gets 2x points from just those made shots.

If Nikki made 2x+1 three-pointers, then she gets 3(2x+1) = 6x+3 points from just the stuff beyond the arc.

In total, she earns (2x)+(6x+3) = 8x+3 points from both types of shots.

-------------------

Set this equal to the stated total 43 points and solve for x.

8x+3 = 43

8x = 43-3

8x = 40

x = 40/8

x = 5

Nikki made <u>5 two-pointers</u> and 2x+1 = 2*5+1 = <u>11 three-pointers</u>

--------------------

Check:

A = points from two-pointers only = 2*5 = 10 points

B = points from three-pointers only = 3*11 = 33 points

A+B = total points = 10+33 = 43 points

The answer has been confirmed.

Denise bought a box of 560 pieces of candy.4/5 of the pieces of the candy were fruity and 1/4 of the remaining pieces of candy w
Liula [17]

Answer:

<em>Number of Other flavor candy is 84.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

A total of 560 pieces of candy are there in the box.

\frac{4}{5} of the pieces are fruity.

Number of Fruity pieces:

\dfrac{4}{5} \times 560\\\Rightarrow 4 \times 112 =448

Now, remaining pieces = Total pieces - Fruity pieces

remaining pieces = 560 - 448 = 112

Also given that \frac{1}4 of the remaining pieces are mind.

Number of mint pieces:

\dfrac{1}{4}\times 112 = 28

Other flavors remaining = Total pieces - Fruity pieces - Mint pieces

Other flavors remaining = 560 - 448 - 28

Other flavors remaining = 112 - 28 = <em>84</em>

<em>Number of Other flavor candy is 84.</em>
