Answer:

20 disparos

Step-by-step explanation:

Primera etapa es de determinar cuantos tiros de Camilo acertaron al blanco.

Sabemos que en su última práctica, obtuvo 99 puntos con una mezcla de 5, 8 y 10 puntos.  Eso puedo se exprimir así:

5x + 8y + 10x = 99

Sabemos también que el obtuvo tantos tiros de 8 puntos que de 10 puntos, entonces

y = z

Podemos mezclar las 2 ecuaciones y substituir y por z:

5x + 8y + 10y = 99

5x +18y = 99

Una ecuación, dos variables... no es fácil... pero son números pequeños y se puede intentar soluciones.  Entonces, cuantas veces podemos multiplicar 5 y 18 para obtener 99?

El más simple es de hacer la tabla de multiplicación de 18 y ver cual número nos deja con un multiple de 5.

18 x 1 = 18 (99 - 18 = 81, no un multiple e 5)

18 x 2 = 36 (99 - 36 = 63, no un multiple de 5)

18 x 3 = 54 (99 - 54 = 45, SI, un multiple de 5)

18 x 4 = 72 (99 - 72 = 27, no un multiple de 5)

18 x 5 = 90 (99 - 90 = 9, no un multiple de 5)

Entonces, sabemos que y = 3 y z = 3

5x + 18 (3) = 99

5x + 54 = 99

5x = 45

x = 9

El tiró 9 veces por 5 puntos, 3 veces por 8 puntos y 3 veces pour 10 puntos.

En total tiró 15 veces.

Si acertó 75% (3/4) de las veces, cuantos tiros total?

\frac{15}{3/4} = \frac{15 * 4}{3} = 20

Camilo tiró 20 veces en total.

Jacque needs to buy some pizzas for a party at her office. She's ordering from a restaurant that charges a \$7.50$7.50dollar sig
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Delivery fee = $7.50

Price per pizza = $14

Planned amount = $60

7.50 + 14p < 60

Subtract 7.50 from both sides

14p < 60 - 7.50

14p < 52.50

Divide both sides by 14

p < 52.50 / 14

p < 3.75

Each pizza is cut into 8 slices

Total slices she can afford = 3.75 × 8

= 30 slices

Given f(x) and g(x) = f(k⋅x), use the graph to determine the value of k.
yan [13]

Answer:

The value of k is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function f(x) passes through the points (0,4) and (-6,-2)

So the equation of the function is \frac{y-4}{4-(-2)} = \frac{x-0}{0-(-6)}

⇒ y = x + 4 ....... (1)

Again the function g(x) passes through the points (0,4) and (-2,-2).

Therefore, the equation of g(x) will be  \frac{y-4}{4-(-2)} =\frac{x-0}{0-(-2)}

⇒ y = 3x + 4

Therefore, g(x) = 3x + 4 = f(3x) {from equation (1).

So, the value of k is 3. (Answer)
