Last season, a baseball player scored 14 runs in 18 games. this season, the baseball player scored 12 runs in 15 games. find the number of runs scored per game in each season. round your answer to the nearest hundredth. then identify the season in which the player scored more runs per game.

1. Last season, a baseball player scored 14 runs in 18 games, then the number of runs scored per game in last season is

2. This season, the baseball player scored 12 runs in 15 games, then the number of runs scored per game in this season is

3. 0.78<0.8, then the player scored more runs in this season.

-3

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
