Lindsey Smith was the top scorer in a women's professional basketball league for the 2006 regular season, with a total of 867 po

ints. The number of two-point field goals that Lindsey made was 66 less than double the number of three-point field goals she made. The number of free throws (each worth one point) she made was 36 less than the number of two-point field goals she made. Find how many free throws, two-point field goals, and three-point field goals Lindsey Smith made during the 2006 regular season. How many free throws, 3 pointers, and 2 pointers did she make?

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total point = 867

Let :

number of 3 point goals = p

Number of 2 point goals = 2p - 66

Number of 1 point goals = (2p - 66) - 36 = 2p - 102

Hence,

3p + 2(2p - 66) + 2p - 102 = 867

3p + 4p - 132 + 2p - 102 = 867

3p + 4p + 2p - 234 = 867

9p - 234 = 867

9p = 867 + 234

9p = 1101

p = 122.33

2 pointer = 2p - 66

2(122.33) - 66 = 178.67

1 point = 2p - 102

2(122.33) - 102

= 142.67

Note: you may need to recheck the parameters given, because the expected result should be whole numbers

Is ΔWXZ ≅ ΔYZX? Why or why not? Yes, they are congruent by SAS. Yes, they are both right triangles. No, the triangles share side
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
I will attached the picture of what you are talking about here. The answer for this problem is: Yes, that they are congruent by SAS. Meaning that the triangles are congruent if their included angles and any pair of corresponding sides are equal in both triangles. In this case, the sides are both 21 cm and this will make the angle equal for both triangles, so that is why they are congruent.

Annie is creating a stencil for her artwork using a coordinate plane. The beginning of the left edge of the stencil falls at (2,
taurus [48]

Answer:

(A)(12, 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The beginning of the left edge of the stencil falls at (2, −1).

A point, say Q on the stencil is at  (4, 1).

Point Q divides the stencil into the ratio 1:4.

We are required to find the end of the stencil.

Mathematically, Point Q divides the stencil internally in the ratio 1:4.

For internal division of a line with beginning point (x_1,y_1) and end point (x_2,y_2) in the ratio m:n, we use the formula

Q(x,y)=(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n} ,\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n} )

(x_1,y_1)=(2, -1), (x_2,y_2)=?, Q(x,y)=(4,1), m:n=1:4

Therefore:

(4,1)=(\dfrac{1x_2+4*2}{1+4} ,\dfrac{1y_2+4*-1}{1+4} )\\(4,1)=(\dfrac{x_2+8}{5} ,\dfrac{y_2-4}{5} )\\$Therefore:\\\dfrac{x_2+8}{5}=4\\x_2+8=4X5\\x_2=20-8=12\\$Similarly\\\dfrac{y_2-4}{5}=1\\y_2-4=5\\y_2=4+5=9\\(x_2,y_2)=(12,9)

The correct option is A.

What is a3 in an arithmetic sequence in which a10=41 and a15=61
USPshnik [31]
\bf \begin{array}{llll}
term&value\\
-----&-----\\
a_{10}&41\\
a_{11}&41+d\\
a_{12}&(41+d)+d\\
&41+2d\\
a_{13}&(41+2d)+d\\
&41+3d\\
a_{14}&(41+3d)+d\\
&41+4d\\
a_{15}&(41+4d)+d\\
&41+5d=61
\end{array}
\\\\\\
41+5d=61\implies 5d=20\implies d=\cfrac{20}{5}\implies \boxed{d=4}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
d=\textit{common difference}\\
----------\\
d=4\\
n=10\\
a_{10}=41
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
41=a_1+(10-1)4\implies 41=a_1+36\implies \boxed{5=a_1}

thus

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
d=\textit{common difference}\\
----------\\
d=4\\
n=3\\
a_{1}=5
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
a_3=a_1+(3-1)4\implies a_3=5+(3-1)4

and surely you know how much that is.
