Question

A. what was the average rate they were in the first half of the game? B.what was the average rate over the whole game?C.given your answers above which half of the game do you feel they had a better rate of scoring? Explain

Answer 1

We have the following:

A

Because the game takes 32 minutes, half the game would be 16 minutes (32/2)

We calculate the average rate of these data, as follows:

`(48)/(16)=3`

which means that there is an average rate of 3 points per minute

B

now for the whole game it would be

`(64)/(32)=2`

which means that there is an average rate of 2 points per minute

C.

Since in the first half of the game there is a higher average than the entire game, we can affirm that the game is decided above the first half of the game.
