<u>Answer:</u>

Swati - 465 , Matt - 289

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let Swati's score be x and Matt's score be y.

Since Swati won the game her score is obviously higher.

We are given the sum and difference between their scores which we can write as , x + y = 754 and x - y = 176.

Solving these two equations by adding them we get 2x = 930 so x = 465. Substituting x in x - y = 176 we get y = 289

Thus Swati scored 465 points and Matt scored 289 points.

horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Sharon spent a total of 49 minutes yesterday reading the book

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the rate at which she reads

The total number of pages she reads at any given time interval can be expressed as;

T=P×m

where;

T=Total number of pages she reads

P=the rate at which she reads in number of pages per minute

m=total number of minutes she takes reading a book

In our case;

T=10 pages

P=p

m=35 minutes

replacing;

10=p×35

p=10/35

p=(10/35)

The rate at which she reads=(10/35) pages per minute

Step 2: Calculate the time she spent reading the book yesterday

Yesterdays variables are as follows;

T=14 pages

p=(10/35) pages per minute

m=unknown

replacing;

14=(10/35)×m

m=14×(35/10)

m=49
