Anthony scored 28 points in a recent basketball game. He made a total of 12 baskets. How many 2 and 3 point shots did he make? (Consider only the 2 and 3 point shots: no free throws)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

8 2-point shots and 4 3-point shots

Step-by-step explanation:

Anthony scored 28 points with 12 baskets. Saying that, (with x-y representing 2 point shots-3 point shots) any combination with a supermajority (at least 75% of) of either shot is out. This leaves just 5 possible combinations. 8-4, 7-5, 6-6, 5-7, and 4-8. Multiply the first number by 2 and the second by 3.

(4 * 2) + (8 * 3) = 8 + 24 = 32 points, so no.

(5 * 2) + (7 * 3) = 10 + 21 = 31 points, so no.

(6 * 2) + (6 * 3) = 12 + 18 = 30 points, so no.

(7 * 2) + (5 * 3) = 14 + 15 = 29 points, so no as well.

(8 * 2) + (4 * 3) = 16 + 12 = 28 points, so this is the combination we're looking for.

2 sides of a triangle have measures of 5 inches and 11 inches which measure could be the length of the third side

Answers

Answer:

the third side must be greater than 6 but less than 16

Step-by-step explanation:

use triangle inequality theorem - 3 scenarios (one of which is discounted because it produces a negative and a side of a triangle cannot be negative)

5 + 11 > 3rd side (n)    n < 16

5 + n > 11       n > 6

James drove to the lake and back the trip there took four hours and the trip back took six hours he average 20 mph faster on the trip there on on the return tip find Jameses average speed on the trip

Answers

Answer: 60 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Question wants the speed to the lake.

It took James 4 hours to get to the lake and he drove at a speed 20 mph faster than when he came back.

It took him 6 hours to come back.

Assuming the speed James used on the return trip is x:

Expression for distance is:

4(x + 20) = 6x

4x + 80 = 6x

2x = 80

x = 80/2

x = 40 mph

Speed to the lake = 40 + 20

= 60 mph

what does 3w =30 mean a. 6 b.9 c.10 d.12

Answers

Step-by-step explanation: apply exponent rule rewrite factor out common term plz enjoy

Answer:

[tex]x = 0\; ,-\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]36x^3 + 27x^2 = 0[/tex]

Take 9x² common from the expression on L.H.S.

[tex]=> 9x^2(4x + 3) = 0[/tex]

Here, x will have 2 values :-

1) [tex]9x^2(4x + 3) = 0[/tex]

Divide both the sides by (4x + 3)

[tex]=> \frac{9x^2(4x + 3)}{(4x+3)} = \frac{0}{4x+3}[/tex]

[tex]=> 9x^2 = 0[/tex]

Divide both the sides by 9x

[tex]=> \frac{9x^2}{9x} = \frac{0}{9x}[/tex]

[tex]=> x = 0[/tex]

2) [tex]9x^2(4x + 3) = 0[/tex]

Divide both the sides by 9x²

[tex]=> \frac{9x^2(4x + 3)}{9x^2} = \frac{0}{9x^2}[/tex]

[tex]=> 4x+3 = 0[/tex]

Substract both the sides from 3

[tex]=> 4x+3 -3 = 0 - 3[/tex]

[tex]=> 4x=-3[/tex]

Divide both the sides by 4

[tex]=> \frac{4x}{4} = \frac{-3}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=> x = -\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

Work out the total area of the regions shaded in the diagram.
Give your answer correct to 1 decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

Area of the shaded portion = 54.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve first for the area of the circle:

[tex]area \: of \: circle = \pi {r}^{2} \\ = \pi( \frac{d}{2} )^{2} \\ = \pi( \frac{10}{2} )^{2} \\ = 25\pi \: or \: 78.5398 {cm}^{2} [/tex]

Then, compute for the area of the triangle:

[tex]area \: of \: triangle = \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height \\ = \frac{1}{2} ( {8})(6) \\ = 24 {cm}^{2} [/tex]

Since we only needed the shaded portion, we have to subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the circle

[tex]25\pi {cm}^{2} - 24 {cm}^{2} = 54.5398 {cm}^{2} [/tex]

Which of the following tables represents a function?

Answers

Answer:

The third table

Step-by-step explanation:

It's the third table because each input does not repeat, so it means all of the inputs are unique

Repeating inputs (x) make it not a function

As their is no mention of test assuming it's not a test question

Solution

Now

As per definition of function

Every domain has an unique rangef(x)=y

Thing we have to see here is x values must not repeated more than once
