To have batting averages over 0.500,how many hits in 45 times at bat would Raul and Karen need

Sagot :

You would have to multiply 0.500(0.5) to 45 and you would get 22.5

Answer:

They would need 23 hits at 45 times at bat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hits.

We can set up the following inequality:  [tex]\frac{x}{45} >0.500[/tex]

Now, multiplying both sides by 45 we get the solution:  

[tex]x > 22.5[/tex]

To have individual batting averages over 0.500, Raul and Karen would each need 23 hits for every 45 times at bat.
