Answer:
Yes she will
Step-by-step explanation:
At the beginning of a basketball game, Logan made 9 points in 4 minutes. She wants to break the school's record of 119 points in a game. If a game lasts for 1 hour and Logan continues to score points at this rate, will she break the school's record? Explain how you know.
A game lasts for 1 hour
The record of the school = 119 points in a game.
The rate at which Logan is playing is =
9 points in 4 minutes.
1 hour = 60 minutes.
Hence,
4 minutes = 9 points
60 minutes = x points
Cross Multiply
4 × x = 60 × 9
x = 60 × 9/4
x = 135 points
Hence, Logan if she continues at a rate of 9 points in 4 minute will beat the school record and score 135 points in a game.
