The average points scored playing basketball for Player A and Player B are graphed in the graphs. Determine which player averaged more points per game.

Question

(1 point)
Player B averaged more points
• than Player A. Player B averaged 75 points per game.
Player A averaged more points
• than Player B. Player A averaged 20 points per game.
Player A averaged more points
• than Player B. Player A averaged 80 points per game.
Player B averaged more points
• than Player A. Player B averaged 45 points per game.

Answer 1

To determine which player averaged more points per game, we can summarize the information given:

1. Player B averaged 75 points per game.
2. Player A averaged 20 points per game.
3. Player A averaged 80 points per game.
4. Player B averaged 45 points per game.

From the above:

• If Player B averaged 75 points, they scored more than Player A (who averaged 20 points).
• If Player A averaged 80 points, they scored more than Player B (who averaged 45 points).

Without the direct comparisons in each case, it’s tough to conclude definitively which player averaged more without explicitly stating or affirming the graphs. However, based on the statements:

• Player B averaged more points than Player A (75 > 20).
• Player A averaged more points than Player B (80 > 45).

Since there are conflicting comparisons, the overall conclusion would depend on the scenario. If Player A averaged 80 points, that is the highest average given among the provided data. Therefore, Player A averaged more points.

Final conclusion based on the highest numbers presented: Player A averaged more points. (80 points per game)
