Here, I'll do the first one for you.
When they are talking about a number, use "x".
Since it says twice a number, you say 2x. Or 3x for three times the number
2x+12=3x-31
Then use algebra to find x. Get the numbers on one side and all the x's on the other.
2x+12+31=3x-31+31
2x+43-2x=3x-2x
x=43
Now do the rest on your own!

Answer: im having the same problem
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x + y = 162 and x = 2y - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total wins be x
Let the total loss be y
If a baseball team's total wins and losses for one season is 162, this can be expressed as;
x + y = 162 ....... 1
If the number of wins is 6 less than 2 times the number of losses, this is expressed as;
2 times the number of losses = 2y
6 less than 2 times the number of losses = 2y - 6
Now, If the number of wins is 6 less than 2 times the number of losses this is expressed as;
x = 2y - 6 .... 2
Hence the required system of equation are;
x + y = 162 and x = 2y - 6
2x+54= 3x
x=54
teh answer is 54
