Question

2. The formula for passing efficiency P in NCAA football is P8.4Y+330T+100C-200/Awhere Y isthe number of passing yards, T is the number of passing touchdowns, C is the number ofcompleted passes, I is the number of interceptions, and A is the number of attempts. Write anequation that will calculate the completed passes for a quarterback with a givenefficiency, number of passing yards, number of passing touchdowns, number of interceptions,and number of attempts. Show your work.

Answer 1

Okay, here we have this:

Considering the provided information and equation, we are going to find an equation that will calculate the completed passes, so we obtain the following:

Then from the given equation we will solve for C and the resulting equation will be the one we are looking for, then we have:

`\begin{gathered} P=(8AY+330T+100C-200I)/(A) \\ PA=8AY+330T+100C-200I \\ PA-8AY-330T+200I=100C \\ C=(PA-8AY-330T+200I)/(100) \end{gathered}`

The above equation is the one we are looking for, and it will calculate the completed passes for a quarterback with a given efficiency, number of passing yards, number of passing touchdowns, number of interceptions, and number of attempts.
