Answer: -2x + 9
First, Use the distributive property: 3(x+3)-5x (3 multiplied by x is 3x and 3 multiplied by 3 is 9
Next, subtract the variable x: 3x+9-5x (3x-5x=-2x
The answer is -2x+9
There is no solution since 5 doesn't equal 45
There is NO solution.
Cancel t on both sides (1/5 = 7/8).
Since 1/5 = 7/8, that doesn't make any sense so that is inapplicable ( So NO answer).
Answer:
This means that the coach should have the team going for the 2 point shot. There is a 36% probability of making the 2 point shot and winning overtime.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have these following probabilities:
A 60% probability of tying the game on a 2 point shot. In this case, the game goes to overtime, in which the team has a 60% probability of winning.
A 30% probability of making the 3 point shot and winning.
What should the coach do, go for the 2 point shot or the 3 point shot?
In which case the team has a higher probability of winning?
The team has:
A 60% probability of tying the game on a 2 point shot. In this case, the game goes to overtime, in which the team has a 60% probability of winning. So, going for the 2 point shot, the team has a 0.6*0.6 = 0.36 = 36% probability of winning.
Going for the 3 point shot, the team has a 30% probability of winning.
This means that the coach should have the team going for the 2 point shot. There is a 36% probability of making the 2 point shot and winning overtime.
