Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Game 1: 30

Game 2: 18

Game 3: 28

Game 4: x

Solution

(30 + 18 + 28 + x) / 4 = 26                 Multiply both sides by 4

4* (30 + 18 + 28 + x) / 4 = 26 * 4       The 4s on the left cancel

30 + 18 + 28 + x = 104                       Add the 3 other numbers together

76 + x = 104                                       Subtract 76 from both sides.

76-76+x = 104-76                              The 76s on the left disappear.

x = 28

Answer

in the next game he must score 28 points to average 26

jack and josh shared some sweets in the ratio 4:7 josh got 18 more sweets than jack how many sweets were there in total
Nata [24]

Answer:

66 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

We are told that the ratio for sharing the sweet is 4:7

that is Jack takes 4 parts and Josh takes 7 paths

If Josh got 18 more

then Let the amount that Jack got be x

so that Josh got x+18

step two:

applying the part to part method, we can find the quantity each of them go

4/7= x/x+18

cross multiply

7x= 4x+72

collect like terms

7x-4x= 72

3x=72

divide both sides by 3

x= 72/3

x= 24

so  Jack got 24 sweets

and Josh got 24+18=42 sweets

in all the sweets = 66 sweets

Factor this expression completely.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

5 and 7 are both common factors of 35 and 40

Looking at the options you can eliminate C and D right away because 7 times 8 = 56 and not 40 like the problem is asking.

This leaves A and B. Looking at the equation the difference between the two are the + and -

Using the original equation (35x-40) as reference we see that it subtracts the two variables. Therefore leaving A as the answer
