A basketball coach uses the expression 2b + 1 to determine the number of points earned by
his players during a practice drill, where b is the number of baskets made outside the free
throw lane and I is the number of baskets made inside the free throw lane. How many points did
Emily earn is she made 8 baskets out of the free throw lane and 12 baskets inside the free
throw lane?

Respuesta :

Answer:

28 points

Step-by-step explanation:

You would insert 8 for b and 12 for l.

SUBSTITUTE

2(8) + (12)

MULTIPLY

16 + 12

ADD

= 28

(I believe I did this right...but I hope this helps. I just got confused on where the l came from, I just thought you mixed up the l and 1.)
