given that :- A basketball player practices jumpshots she starts at 0 pts and scores 5 pts per minute

how many pts will she have scored after a certain number of minutes=?

she scores 5 pts in 1 minute it means 5 pts=1 minute

let us assume, she practices for 2 minutes then what will be her score? its very easy, score is 10 . how it will came to know, when we multiply the number of minutes with score per minute it gives us total score as result similarly, let us assume  certain number of minutes=n

then,  scored after a certain number of minutes= n*5
