Can someone please help me solve this I don’t have a right calculator to do it!

Answer:

x = 7 , y = 3 , or 7 free throws, and 3 3-pointers.

Step-by-step explanation:

James scored a total of 16 points during a basketball. Only free throws and 3-point baskets are used. Free throws = 1 point (x), 3-pointers = 3 points (y).

Set the equations:

16 = x + 3y

10 = x + y

First, isolate the variable x in the second equation. Divide y from both sides of the equation:

10 (-y) = x + y (-y)

x = 10 - y

Next, plug in 10 - y for x in the first equation:

16 = x + 3y

16 = (10 - y) + 3y

Simplify. Combine like terms:

16 = 10 - y + 3y

16 = 10 + (-y + 3y)

16 = 10 + 2y

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operation, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

~

First, subtract 10 from both sides of the equation:

16 (-10) = 10 (-10) + 2y

2y = 16 - 10

2y = 6

Next, divide 2 from both sides:

(2y)/2 = (6)/2

y = 6/2 = 3

Plug in 3 for y in one of the equations:

16 = x + 3y

16 = x + 3(3)

16 = x + 9

Isolate the variable, subtract 9 from both sides of the equation:

16 (-9) = x + 9 (-9)

x = 16 - 9

x = 7

x = 7 , y = 3 , or 7 free throws, and 3 3-pointers.

Plug in to check:

16 = x + 3y

10 = x + y

16 = (7) + 3(3)

16 = 7 + 9

16 = 16 (True)

10 = (7) + (3)

10 = 10 (True).

x = 7 , y = 3  or 7 free throws, and 3 3-pointers.

Given

[tex]3x^2 = 6x[/tex]

Required

Why dividing by [tex]3x[/tex] is not reliable

The reason is that, the given expression is a quadratic equation and as such, it will most likely have two solutions.

So, when the expression is divided by [tex]3x[/tex], the solution will be [tex]x = 2[/tex], leaving out the other possible solution.

The right way is:

[tex]3x^2 = 6x[/tex]

Subtract 6x from both sides

[tex]3x^2 - 6x = 6x - 6x[/tex]

[tex]3x^2 - 6x = 0[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]3x(x - 2) = 0[/tex]

Split

[tex]3x = 0\ or\ x - 2 = 0[/tex]

Solve for x in both cases:

[tex]x = 0\ or\ x = 2[/tex]

Answer:

Actual length of ship is  150  meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

As model ship is built to a scale of  

1 centimeter  : 5  meters and

length of model ship is  30  centimeters

Actual length of ship is  30 × 5 = 150  meters.

Answer:

[tex]SA = 70\pi[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for cone

Required

The total surface area

This is calculated as:

[tex]SA = \pi r\² + \pi rl[/tex]

From the attached cone:

[tex]r = 5[/tex] -- radius

[tex]l = 9[/tex] --- slant height

So, we have:

[tex]SA = \pi * 5^2 + \pi * 5*9[/tex]

[tex]SA = 25\pi + 45\pi[/tex]

[tex]SA = 70\pi[/tex]

Answer: The value of x is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure we have two secants.

A secant is a line that intersects a circle in exactly two points.

For the figure attached below:

[tex]a\times b=c\times d[/tex]

So for the given figure,

[tex]x\times 8=4\times (4+8)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{4\times12}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=6[/tex]

Hence, The value of x is 6.

Answer:

x=6

and hello to you as well

midpoint is (-1 and -1.5)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

midpoint rule is    x2+x1 / 2  , y2+y1 / 2

where point one is P1 = (x1,y1) = (4,3)

and point two is P2 = (x2,y2) = -6,-6

for x   then,  -6+4 / 2 = -2 / 2   =  - 1

for y then,  -6+3 / 2 = -3 / 2  =  - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

mid point is  ( -1 ,  - [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] )

Hello again, hehelol12.

PQ is equal to CB. So the length of PQ must be 9.

Angle PQR is equal to CBA. Therefore the measure of angle PQR is 46.

I hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

since they are congruent triangles, all your have to done is the compare the longest side of the first triangle is equal to that of the other; the smallest side of the first triangle is equal to that of the second, and so for the corresponding angles

using the above method,

Answer:

a) from mere observation line PQ is the longest therefore it is equal to the length of the longest side of the other triangle. so line PQ = 9

b) again, ang PQ is the smallest, using the method, ang PQ = 46 degrees

but mind you, you could use a ruler to measure the length to find the longest more accurately.

Answer:

i think it is d

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Length of Rectangle is 3 cm less than twice the width

Area is 44 m2 ; let W = width;  2W - 3 = Length

Arect = L times W

44 = W ( 2W - 3 )

44 = 2W2 - 3W

0 = 2W2 - 3W - 44

Factoring

0 = ( 2W - 11 )( W +4)

2W - 11 =0   ;            W + 4 = 0

       W = 11/2                 W = -4  (width can not be a negative number)

Therefor: width is 11/2  and length is 8

Answer:

∠ B = 80.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

Since AB = AC then the triangle is isosceles with base angles congruent, so

∠ B = ∠ C , then

∠ B = [tex]\frac{180-19}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{161}{2}[/tex] = 80.5°

Answer: $1,467.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the future value given annual compounding is:

= Amount * ( 1 + rate) ^ number of years

The amount after 3 years at 5.5% is therefore:

= 1,250 * ( 1 + 5.5%)³

= 1,250 * 1.174241375

= $1,467.80

Answer:

Red

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of laps and Let y = time taken to complete laps

She is able to run one lap in 7 minutes

Given this information we want to create an equation

the equation would be

7x = y

Now that we have created an equation we want to find how many laps she can run in 56 minutes.

The time is represented by 7 so we plug in 56 into y

so now we have

7x = 56

Finally we solve for x

*divide each side by 7*

56/7 = 8

7x / 7 = x

we're left with x = 8 meaning that she can run 8 laps in 56 minutes

In conclusion the answer is the Red one

12. option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

FV= $1,397.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Initial investment (PV)= $1,250

Interest rate (i)= 2.25% compounded annually

Number of periods (n)= 5 years

To calculate the future value, we need to use the following formula:

FV= PV*(1+i)^n

FV= 1,250*(1.0225^5)

FV= $1,397.1

Answer:

20 is the correct answer

Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

120% divided by 150%

the formula is a^2+b^2=c^2

A and B are the sides doesn't matter which

C is always across from the right angle

so fill x in accordingly

4^2+3^2=x^2

16+9=

25= x^2

square root both 25 and x^2

25 becomes 5

x^2 becomes x

x=5

and just apply this to the other problems

Answer:

The multiplicity of the root is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to understand what multiplicity is

By multiplicity, we simply refer to the number of times we have the certain root repeating itself

From the factorization, each of the given roots were only repeated once

That indicates that the given multiplicity is 1
