Tabitha was shooting free throws in gym class. She completed 6 of the shots, which was a third of 5 more than Joan completed. How many shots did Joan complete?

Answers

Answer 1

Final answer:

Joan completed 13 free throws. This was determined by solving the equation derived from the information that Tabitha's 6 completed shots were a third of 5 more than Joan's completed shots.

Explanation:

Tabitha completed 6 free throws, which is stated to be a third of 5 more than Joan completed. This means that if J represents the number of shots Joan completed, then 6 is one-third of J plus 5. Therefore, we can express this relationship in an equation: 6 = (J + 5) / 3.

To find out how many shots Joan completed, we solve for J as follows:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to eliminate the fraction: 18 = J + 5.

Subtract 5 from both sides to solve for J: J = 18 - 5.

Calculate the result: J = 13.

Hence, Joan completed 13 free throws.

Select the favorable outcomes for rolling a sum of seven.

Answers

The correct set of favorable outcomes for rolling a sum of seven with two dice is Option C: (1-6) (2-5) (3-4) (4-3) (5-2) (6-1), as each of these pairs adds up to the target sum of seven.

The student is asking which of the given sets of pairs (representing the outcomes of rolling two dice) would result in a sum of seven. The correct choice is:

Option C: (1-6) (2-5) (3-4) (4-3) (5-2) (6-1)

Each pair of numbers in Option C adds up to seven, which are the favorable outcomes for rolling a sum of seven with two dice. The sum of the numbers in each pair from the other options does not equal seven. Therefore, the favorable outcomes for rolling a sum of seven on two dice are those where the first and second numbers add up to seven, as correctly listed in Option C.

Barbara bought 5 amusement park tickets at a cost of $30.If she bought 7 tickets,how much would it cost?

Answers

Answer:

30 / 5 = 6$ (cost for 1 ticket)

6 x 7 = 42$ (cost for 7 tickets)

To find the cost for 7 amusement park tickets, divide the original cost by the number of tickets to find the price per ticket ($6) and then multiply by 7 to get the total cost ($42).

The student asks how much it would cost to buy 7 amusement park tickets if 5 tickets cost $30. This is a proportional relationship problem, where the cost of tickets is directly proportional to the number of tickets purchased. To find the cost for 7 tickets, we first determine the cost of 1 ticket by dividing the total cost by the number of tickets (30 divided by 5 equals 6). Since each ticket costs $6, we then multiply this by 7 to find the total cost for 7 tickets (6 times 7 equals 42). Thus, Barbara would pay $42 for 7 tickets.

What is an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (6, 10) and is parallel to the graph of y=13x−1 ?

Answers

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form that passes through (6, 10) and is parallel to y = 13x - 1 is y = 13x - 68, which represents the same slope with a different y-intercept.

The student is looking for the equation of a line in slope-intercept form that passes through the point (6, 10) and is parallel to another line with the equation y = 13x - 1. Since parallel lines have equal slopes, the slope of our unknown line will also be 13, the same as the given line. To find the y-intercept of the new line, we can use the slope-intercept form equation, which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Here's how you can find the equation step by step:

Start with the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b.Insert the slope of the line (13), so the equation becomes y = 13x + b.Now, insert the point (6, 10) into this equation and solve for b. Substituting the values gives us 10 = 13(6) + b.Solve for b: b = 10 - 78, which simplifies to b = -68.We now have the slope (13) and the y-intercept (-68), so the final equation is y = 13x - 68.

Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through the point (6, 10) and is parallel to y = 13x - 1 is y = 13x - 68.

 so charlies mom pays 30 dollars and Charlie pays 10 dollars

 here to help :)
Charlies mother would have paid $30 and Charlie would have paid $10.

We get this answer by first converting the percentages into decimals.
75% = 0.75
25% = 0.25

Next we are going to multiple but of the decimals by 40,
0.75 * 40 = 30
0.25 * 40 = 10

And 30 + 10 = 40 so we know we have the right anwser.
= $30 & $10

What would 40/8 as a mixed number be.

Answers

40/8 is a mixed number but simplified would be 5/1 or 10/2

[tex]\( \frac{40}{8} \)[/tex] simplified as a mixed number is 5.

To convert the improper fraction [tex]\( \frac{40}{8} \)[/tex] to a mixed number, we divide the numerator (40) by the denominator (8) to find the whole number part and the remainder.

[tex]\[ \frac{40}{8} = 5 \frac{0}{8} \][/tex]

So, [tex]\( \frac{40}{8} \)[/tex] as a mixed number is [tex]\( 5 \frac{0}{8} \)[/tex].

However, we can simplify the mixed number because the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 8.

[tex]\[ 5 \frac{0}{8} = 5 \][/tex]

So, [tex]\( \frac{40}{8} \)[/tex] simplified as a mixed number is 5.

Select Is a Function or Is not a Function to correctly classify each relation.

Answers

Answer

{(3, 2), (6, 4), (9, 6), (12, 8)}   is a function

{(2, 3), (2, 5), (3, 6), (9, 4)}    is not a function

{(2, 4), (6, 3), (4, 8), (6, 6)}    is not a function

{(3, 4), (5, 2), (6, 8), (6, 4)}    is not a function

Explanation

To test if a relation is a function from a set of ordered pairs, you just need to check if each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element of the range. Remember that the domain is all the x-values (first points of each ordered pairs) and the range is all the y-values (second points of each ordered pairs).

Let's test each one of our relations:

{(3, 2), (6, 4), (9, 6), (12, 8)} each element of the domain is paired with exactly one element of the range, so this one is a function.

{(2, 3), (2, 5), (3, 6), (9, 4)}  2 in the domain is paired with both 3 and 5 in the range, so this one is not a function.

{(2, 4), (6, 3), (4, 8), (6, 6)}  6 is paired with both 3 and 6, so this one is not a function either.

{(3, 4), (5, 2), (6, 8), (6, 4)}  6 is paired with both 8 and 4, so this one is not a function either.
