Total points is 23
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Total number of baskets = 18
Let the number of 2 pointer shots be x
Let the number of 3 pointer shots be y
According to the question:
-1
The equation can be formed as:
On solving this equation further we get:
Putting the value of x = 4 in equation 1
Points for 2 pointer shots = 4 X 2
= 8
Points for 3 pointer shots = 5 X 3
= 15
Total points = 8 + 15
= 23
Therefore, total points is 23

Given:
2 parallelograms with an area of 9 1/3 yd²
height of each parallelogram is 1 1/3 yd
Area of parallelogram = base * height
We need to divide the combined area into two to get each parallelogram's base.
9 1/3 = ((9*3)+1)/3 = 28/3
28/3 ÷ 2 = 28/3 * 1/2 = 28/6 yd² or 4 4/6 yd² ⇒ 4 2/3 yd²
Area of each parallelogram is 4 2/3 yd²
4 2/3 yd² = base * 1 1/3 yd
14/3 yd² ÷ 4/3 yd = base
14/3 yd² x 3/4 yd = base
14*3 / 3*4 = base
42 / 12 = base
3 6/12 yd = base
or 3 1/2 yd = base
a) the base of each parallelogram is 3 1/2 yards
b) we can assume that the two parallelograms form a rectangle.
area of a rectangle is length times width.
length is 3 1/2 yds * 2 = 7 yds
width is 3 1/2 yds
Area of rectangle = 7 yds * 3 1/2 yds
Area = 7 yd * 7/2 yd
Area = 7*7 / 2 yd²
Area = 49 / 2 yd²
Area = 24 1/2 yd²
Answer:
He must get 33 hits in his next 46 times at bat to finish the year with a .400 batting average
Step-by-step explanation:
The player has already batted 134 times and will still bat 46 times. So in the end of the year, he is going to have 134 + 46 = 180 at bats.
How many hits does he need to have to hit .400?
This is 40% of 180, which is 0.4*180 = 72.
He has already 39 hits, so in his next 46 at bats, he will need 72 - 39 = 33 hits.
