In his last 13 times at bat in the township baseball league, Santiago got 8 hits. If he is at bat 65 times for the season, how many hits will he get if his average stays the same? a.8/65 = x/13 b.8/x = 65/13 c.8/13 = x/65 d.x/65 = 13/8

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option c) 8/13 = x/65

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Initial batting times = 13

Initial hits = 8

Number of times he bats in the new season = 65 times

Now,

The initial average = [ Initial hits ] ÷ [ Initial batting times ]

= [tex]\frac{8}{13}[/tex]

let the number of hits in this season be 'x'

Thus,

average for the this season = [tex]\frac{x}{65}[/tex]

Therefore,

For the average to be same for this season, we have the relation

[tex]\frac{8}{13}=\frac{x}{65}[/tex]

Hence,

Option c) 8/13 = x/65
