Question

Help with question 3 please

Answer 1

Score = 6x+y

so 6x+y = xy
⇒ 6x = xy-y
⇒ 6x = y(x-1)
⇒ y = 6x/(x-1)

for x=0, y=0
x=1 , not possible
x=2, y = 12
x = 3, y = 9
x = 4, y = 8
x = 5, y = 7.5 (not possible)
x = 6 , y = 7.1 (not possible)
x = 7, y = 7
x = 8, y = 6.85 (not possible)
x = 9, y = 6.75 (not possible)...

Only five scores are possible.
