Answer:
Additional saves = 34 lacrosse.
Step-by-step explanation:
The additional saves = s
Then , the number of saves becomes = 6+s
and, the number of shots faced = 13+s
Save percentage in lacrosse is found by dividing the number of saves by the number of shots faced that is
[tex]\text{ percentage\ in\ lacrosse} =\frac{\text the \ number\ of \ saves}{\text the \ number of shots faced }[/tex]
[tex]\text{ percentage\ in\ lacrosse} =\frac{6+s}{13+s }[/tex]
Given , the percentage of lacrosse = 0.850
[tex]{0.850 } =\frac{6+s}{13+s }[/tex]
[tex]{0.850 \times}({13+s })=6+s[/tex]
[tex]11.05+0.850s=6+s[/tex]
[tex]11.05-6=s-0.850s[/tex]
[tex]5.05=0.15s[/tex]
[tex]s=33.66[/tex]
Since, additional saves must be an integer so round it off to the nearest integer 34.
Thus, Additional saves = 34 lacrosse.
