3 + 3/4x
Step-by-step explanation:
it is 3 up and 4 left so y over x for the the slope. mx +b
Answer:
A) p = 2x - 4 for the expression. B) Your team scored 44 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <u>P</u> represent the points your team made.
Since the question says "Your basketball team scored 4 fewer than twice as many points as the other team." this is how I came up with the expression.
p = 2x - 4 ( our points = 2 times more then the other teams points minus 4.
Using this expression and the given information that the other team made 24 points, I solved B.
44 = 2(24) - 4.
let's notice the tickmarks on the left and right sides, meaning those two sides are twins, and therefore equal, so the perimeter is simply 2.5+2.5+3.5+2.5 = 11 ft.
the trapezoid has an altitude/height of 2 ft, thus
