At a basketball game, a team made 53 successful shots. They were a combination of 1- and
2-point shots. The team scored 90 points in all. Write and solve a system of equations to find the
number of each type of shot.
There were
2-point shots and 1-point shots.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Let x be the number of 1 point shots, and y be the number of 2 point shots.

So the system is:

x+y=53

1x+2y=90

We can solve this system by substitution.

x+y=53, x=53-y

x+2y=90

53-y+2y=90

53+y=90

y=37

That means, the team made 37 two point shots.

If the team made 37 two point shots, the team scored 37 x 2, or 74 points from 2 point shots, meaning that it made 16 one  point shots.

So the correct answer is: 16 one point shots, 37 two point shots.

Answer:

  x = 3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisector divides the segments proportionally. This means they satisfy ...

  bottom segment / side segment = x/6 = (6-x)/4

Multiplying by 12 gives ...

  2x = 3(6 -x)

  2x = 18 -3x . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  5x = 18 . . . . . . . . add 3x

  x = 3.6 . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

_____

Alternate solution

I like to try to work these mentally. The total of side lengths is 10, so the total base length (6) is 6/10 = 0.6 times that. Then x will be 0.6 times the left side length: 0.6·6 = 3.6 = x.

Answer:

C) 1/3, 2, √7

Step-by-step explanation:

√7= 2.6

1/3= 0.3

2=2

1/3, 2, √7

C.

*if using a calculator*

1/3= .333

square root 7 equals about 2.646

therefore, we know .333 (1/3) is the smallest out of the numbers and 2.646 (sqr root 7) is the biggest.

*if you cannot use a calculator*

We know 1/3 is less than 1 because 3/3 would equal 1 and we only have 1/3.

We don’t know the square root of 7, however we know that it has to be between 2 and 3 because the square root of 4 is 2 and the square root of 9 is 3. 7 is between those two numbers, so therefore we know that the square root would have to be between 2 and 3.

Knowing that, we could figure out that since 1/3 is less than 1 it would be the smallest. Since the sqr root of 7 is between 2 and 3, it would be bigger than 2 and the biggest out of the 3.

Conclusion:

The order is 1/3, 2, sqr root 7

for asymptotes:

Let's change the centers into (-3, 2). Therefore, (y-2)² - (x+3)²/16 = 1

To get the asymptotes, let's equate the equation to zero (0) instead of one (1).

(y-2)² - (x+3)²/16 = 0

Notice that this equation is the difference of two squares.

Let x² = (y-2)² and y² = (x+3)²/16

Therefore, we have x² - y² =0

The factors of two squares are:

(x+y)(x-y)=0

Then, equating each factor to zero:

x+y=0

x-y=0

Substituting the real equations:

» (y-2) + (x+3)/4 = 0

y-2 = - (x+3)/4

y= -(x+3)/4 + 2

» (y-2) - (x+3)/4 = 0

y-2 = (x+3)/4

y= (x+3)/4 +2

Lewis is hiking in a state park when he spots a brightly colored bird in a distant tree. Lewis is 60 feet away from the tree, and the bird is perched on a branch 22 feet above the ground. Lewis is 5 feet tall.





What is the angle of elevation, in degrees, of Lewis' line of sight to the bird?

Answers

Answer:

he is 77 feet away from mr. birdie

Step-by-step explanation:

Quite certain it'd be 15.8 degrees.

Think about it, we're trying to figure out his angle of sight. If his eyes are 5 feet above ground, and the bird is 22 feet off the ground, there's really only a 17 ft height difference between the two. After doing the formulas and all, we can see that the angle of his vision is approximately 15.8.

If amount of utility bill is normally distributed with a mean of $105 and a standard deviation of $20. What percentage of your bills would you expect to be between $85 and $125?

Answers

Answer:

68% of your bills between $85 and $125

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = $105

Standard deviation = $20

What percentage of your bills would you expect to be between $85 and $125?

85 = 105 - 20

125 = 105 + 20

Within one standard deviation of the mean, so by the Empirical Rule, 68% of your bills between $85 and $125
