Answer:
11.) 16
12.) rejected: 16; accepted: 304
Step-by-step explanation:
11.) The free throw percentage is the proportion of attempts that are made:
75% = made/attempts = 12/attempts
Multiplying the equation by attempts, we get
attempts·0.75 = 12
attempts = 12/0.75 = 16
The Knicks attempted 16 free throws.
___
12.)
a) The number rejected is the percentage multiplied by the number submitted:
rejected = 5%·320 = 16
b) The number accepted is the number submitted that were not rejected:
accepted = 320 - 16 = 304
Of 320 claims submitted, 16 were rejected and 304 were accepted.
