Elizabeth is a high school basketball player. In a particular game, she made some free throws (worth one point each) and some two point shots. Elizabeth scored a total of 16 points and made twice as many free throws as two point shots. Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of free throws made, x, x, and the number of two point shots made, yy.

x = 8 and y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, the two equations for this question are x + 2y = 16 (represents the number of free throws and 2-pointers) and 2y = x (represents the ratio of free throws to 2-pointers). Now we can use substitution to help us solve this problem, by substituting 2y for the x variable in the first equation to get (2y) + 2y = 16. Now we combine the like terms to get 4y = 16. Now we can divide both sides of this equation by 4 to get y = 4. Now we can find the x variable by substituting 4 for the y variable in the second equation. We get 2(4) = x and this simplifies to x = 8.

hows it hangin lol

step-by-step explanation:

the camry sales+accord sale=828,000. to make it so the two numbers are 18 thousand apart and still equal 828,000, you first need to find out what half of 828,000 is. 828,000/2=414,000. for the two numbers to equal 828,000, you have to add the same amount as you subtract from the middle. in this case, the number is 9,000 because it's half of 18,000. to equal 828,000, you have to add 9,000 to 414,000 for the camry and subtract 9,000 from 414,000 for the accord. 414,000+9,000=423,000.

414,000-9,000=405,000.

423,000+405,000=828,000.

423,000-405,000=18,

hope it
