together, teammates pedro and ricky got 2682 base hits last season. pedro had 284 more hits than ricky. how many hits did each player have?

Ricky had 1199 hits.

Pedro had 1483 hits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pedro had 284 more hits than Ricky.

Let Ricky had 'x' hits.

So, Pedro had hits

Together Pedro and Ricky got 2682 base hits.

This can be modeled as :

So,

Hence, Ricky has 1199 hits.

Pedro has = hits.

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
