2. Taylor has made 130 free throws in her college career
Taylor has made 130 free throws in her college career. She has shot 145 free throws. How many more free throws must she make to have a free throw percentage of 90%?
Let x = the number of free throws Taylor must make.
130+𝑥 145+𝑥 =.9

3. 130+𝑥 145+𝑥 =.9
10∙ 𝑥 145+𝑥 =.9∙10
𝑥 145+𝑥 =9
Multiply both sides by 10 to get ride of the decimal.

4. 𝑥 145+𝑥 =9
Multiply (145+x)on both sides
145+𝑥 1 ∙ 𝑥 145+𝑥 =9∙ 145+𝑥 1
145+𝑥 1 ∙ 𝑥 145+𝑥 =9∙ 145+𝑥 1 1

5. 𝑥=1305+9x
Subtract 9x from both sides.
−9𝑥= − 9𝑥
1300+𝑥=1305
Subtract 1300 from both sides
− =−1300
𝑥=5
If Taylor makes her next 5 free throws then she will have a 90% free throw percentage.
