A city-league basketball team scores an average of 86 points per game for the 2017- 2018 season. The coach announces that he hopes to see at least a 20% increase in scoring for the 2018-2019 season. How many points must the team score per game, on average, to meet this goal?

Respuesta :

Explanation:

We have to find 20% of 86:

[tex]86\times\frac{20}{100}=80\times0.2=16[/tex]

And add it to the average score for the 2017-2018 season, because it says the coach hopes a 20% increase:

[tex]86+16=102[/tex]

Answer:

The teams must score an average of 102 points per game to meet the coach's goal.
