They make 31 two point shots and 6 three point shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The meridian girls basketball team scored a total of 80 points in a basketball game.

Now, to find the two point shots and three point shots they make.

Let the 2 point shots be

And let the 3 point shots be

So, the total baskets:

x+y=37

x=37-y ....(1)

And, the total points:

2x+3y=80

Substituting the value of from equation (1):

$2(37-y)+3y=80\\\\74-2y+3y=80\\\\74+y=80$

Subtracting both sides by 74 we get:

y=80-74

y=6

The 3 point shots = 6.

Now, substituting the value of in equation (1):

$x=37-y\\\\x=37-6\\\\x=31.$

The 2 point shots = 31.

Therefore, they make 31 two point shots and 6 three point shots.

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity". that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both. the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature. this has important considerations for the human body's comfort. when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off. if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature. evaporation is a cooling process. when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature. when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases. in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions. the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases. the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions. there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).

step-by-step explanation:

75% of the temperatures are below what value? how do you know? 75% of the temperatures are above w
