A basketball player makes 75% of her free throws. If she made 93 free throws this season, how many has she attempted?A. 70
B. 81
C. 124
D. 125

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Let us assume the number of free throws attempted this season = x
Number of free throws made = 93
Percentage of free throws made = 75%
Then
(75/100) * x = 93
3x/4 = 93
3x = 93 * 4
x = (93 * 4)/3
   = 31 * 4
   = 124
So the total number of free throws attempted is 124. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. You can always attempt similar type of problems on your own using the method described.

For each handmade greeting card jacqui sells,she makes a profit of $0.35. In one week,she made a profit of $42. She sell the cards for $0.75 each. A. About how many greeting cards did jacqui sell that week ?

B.about how much did she earn before paying expenses ?

Answers

The correct answers are:


A) 120 cards; and

B) $90.


Explanation:


Let x be the number of greeting cards sold that week. She earns $0.35 per card and earned $42; this gives us the equation

0.35x = 42


Divide both sides by 0.35:

0.35x/0.35 = 42/0.35

x = 120


She sold 120 cards.


She sells each card for $0.75. This means she earned

0.75(120) = $90.
To work out the number of cards sold, divide the total profit made for the week by the profit made on each card. 42/0.35 = 120. Jacqui sold 120 cards. Then to work out how much she earned before expenses (t), add her profit to the price of each card x how many cards were sold. T = 42 + (120 x 0.75). T = 42 + 09. T = 132. She earned $132 before expenses.

The height of Maury’s room is 8.4 feet from the floor to the ceiling. Maury wants to install a ceiling fan that hangs 1.875 feet below the ceiling. If Maury is 6.6 feet tall, which explains whether Maury’s head will hit the fan?

Answers

The height of Maury's room is 8.4 ans maury is 6.6 feet tall. The distance between the celling and Maury's head is exactly 1.8. She wants to hang the celling fan 1.875 feet away from the celling that is all the head room she has the celling fan would hit her head.

Answer:

Maury’s head will hit the fan because there are 6.525 feet between the floor and the fan, and 6.525 is less than 6.6.

A school is building a rectangular soccer field that has an area of 6000 yards. The soccer field must be 40 yards longer than it's worth. Determine algebraically the dimensions of the soccer field, in yards. Show/ explain work

Answers

Given, soccer field length is 40 m longer than width
lets consider width=w
 so, length = w+40
area = length*width=6000
(w+40)*w=6000
w^2 +40*w-6000=0;
w^2+(100*w-60*w) -6000=0
(w^2 + 100*w) - (60*w+6000)=0
w(w+100)-60(w+100)=0
(w+100)(w-60)=0
w=60, because width will not be '-100'
w=60 and L=60+40=100
