Answer:

90 times

Explanation:

The equation set-up for if she bounces a basketball 30 times in 50 seconds is 30x=50. This means that she bounced the ball every 1 2/3 second. According to this, our next equation set-up would be 1 2/3x=150. If we divide 150 by 1 2/3, we get 90. This means that Kelly bounced the basketball 90 times in 150 seconds.
