Let the score of cowboys is x
and giants make score 9 which is twice less than the cowboys score so
giants score will be = 2x -9
and packers scored 14 more than giants that is (2x - 9) + 14
now sum of their scores is equal to 81 it means:
x + (2x - 9) + (2x -9) + 14 = 81
x + 2x - 9 + 2x - 9 + 14 = 81
5x = 81 + 4
5x = 85
x = 17
packers scored = (2x - 9) + 14
= 2 (17) -9 + 14
=38 + 5 = 43 points
Answer:
x = 20
y = 26
Step-by-step explanation:
40 and 2x are vertical angles, so they're equal to each other.
40 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2
x = 20
We see that 40 and 5y + 10 are a linear pair, which means they add up to 180.
5y + 10 + 40 = 180
5y + 50 = 180
5y = 130
y = 26
If 7x+3=24, that means x would be 3 so if you take 5-4x then that would be -7.
Adding fractions is easy when you get the rules...
10/12 + 6/12...
add the numerator which is the top, and keep the denominator which is the bottom.
10/12 +6/12 = 16/12
change that into a mixed number
16/12 = 1 4/12 which is simplified to 1 1/3
hope this helps
