In one game, the ratio of three-point baskets to three-point tries for one team was 5: 7. if the team scored 45 points from three-point baskets, how many three-point tries did the team have?

Writing the information in form of a ratio.

Three-Point Baskets Three-Point Tries

5 : 7

45 : x

Think how many 5's go into 45?

It's 45 divided by 5 = 9

What you do on one side you have to do on the other side so that would be:

9 x 7 = 63

Three-Point Tries is 63 points.

I hope this helps.

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
