In a football tournament, the Bees scored 9 less than three times as many points as the Hornets. The Wasps scored 28 more points
than the Hornets. Together the three teams scored 184 points. Let x represent the number of points scored by the Hornets.
Translate the scenario
2 answers:
B = bees, w = wasps, x = hornets
b + w + x = 184
b = 3x - 9
w = x + 28
(3x - 9) + (x + 28) + x = 184...combine like terms
5x + 19 = 184
5x = 184 - 19
5x = 165
x = 165/5
x = 33 <== points scored by Hornets
Answer:
Bees = 3x-9
Wasps = x+28
Which equation represents this scenario?
x+3x-9+x+28=184

Answer:
-5+(-6 )= -11 so you would pinpoint -11 on the number line
Step-by-step explanation:
If you would like to evaluate u + xy, you can do this using the following steps:
u = 18, x = 10, y = 8
u + xy = 18 + 10 * 8 = 18 + 80 = 98
The correct result would be C. 98.
Answer: 11
Explanation:
(4/5)x - (1/4)x = 11
(16/20)x - (5/20)x = 11
(11/20)x = 11
