Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
For the minimum free throws, he must put every throw to the basket.
So, let n be the number of throws for Tuesday, in which all the throws are successful.
So, over both the days, total free throws he makes= 15+n.
Total numbers of throws that went in the basket= 6+n.
As he wants at least 80% of his balls to go in the basket.
So, 6+n is greater than or equal to 809% of 15+n, i.e
[tex]6+n\geq \frac{80}{100}\times (15+n)[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow 30+5n\geq 60+4n[/tex]
[tex]\Rightarrow n\geq 30.[/tex]
Hence, the minimum number of free throws required on Tuesday to reach his goal is 30.
