Question

Can you please help me with the second and third problem they are really hard and im struggling to solve them

Answer 1

Given:

Tameka made x 2 points shots and y 3 points shots.

To find:

a) The expression that represents the total number of points.

b) Calculate points when x = 5 and y = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The total number of points can be calculated as follows,

`T=2x+3y`

Where T represents the total number of points.

b) Substituting x = 5 and y = 2, we get

`\begin{gathered} T=2(5)+3(2) \\ T=10+6 \\ T=16 \end{gathered}`

So, the total number of points she got is 16 points.

Final answer:

The expression that represents the total number of points is,

`T=2x+3y`

The total number of points she got is 16 points.
