what you need to find is just x, right?

i dont know </3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The question is asking how many free throws Felix made and x represents the free throws, so we just need to solve x
x+2y+3z=520
x+20=y
y=3.5z
OpenStudy (anonymous):
is it 520 div 3.5?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x+2y+3z=520---(1)
x+20=y---(2)
y=3.5z---(3)
substitute (3) into (2),
x+20=3.5z---(4)
Sub (3) into (1),
x+2(3.5z)+3Z=520---(5)
just solve (4) and (5), and you can find x and z. but x is the answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
nope, not just divide it

im lost
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i haven't read the long question, but i just use the equation it given
OpenStudy (anonymous):
equations*
OpenStudy (anonymous):
simplify those three equations into simultaneous equations
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how tho is the question im slow

no need. let's do it step by step
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
firstly, don't re-read the question. just look at these three equations
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and look at my previous drawing. ask if you don't understand this step

how u get 1 and 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1 represents equation one.
and so on.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x+2y+3z=520---(1)
this is equation one.
x+20=y---(2)
this is equation two.
y=3.5z---(3)
this is equation three.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
OpenStudy (anonymous):
actually, have you ever learnt simultaneous equations?

noo
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhhhh, no wonder why you don't know what i am saying...
OpenStudy (anonymous):
simultaneous equations is about two equations with two unknowns, and we can find these two unknowns with some easy steps. let me start again
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x+2y+3z=520---(1)
x+20=y---(2)
y=3.5z---(3)
although there are three unknowns, we can simplify them into two unknowns.
it's given that y=3.5z.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
still lost...

don't feel messy, it can be very simple.
there are three unknowns, right?
and equation three is given that y=3.5z
is it ok here?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok. can you see there're "y"s in equation one and two?
