In a basketball game, penny made 16 total baskets and scored 39 total points. each of the baskets she made were either 2-point or 3-point baskets. how many 2 point baskets, and 3 point baskets did penny make?

Step-by-step explanation:

If all were 2-points, then Penny's score would be 32. It is 7 more than that, so she must have made 7 3-point baskets. (Each adds 1 more point than a 2-point basket.) The remaining 9 were 2-point baskets.

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
