A) Every T is worth 7 points, and every F is worth 3 points. So if we let T = 7 and F = 3, we can count how many T's and F's each team scored and write it as an expression.
So for the East Side Bulldogs, they have 7 touchdowns and 6 field goals, thus the expression for them is:
7T + 6F
For the West Side Bulldogs, they have 5 touchdowns and 5 field goals, thus the expression for them is:
5T + 5F
B) The difference would be written as: 7T + 6F - (5T + 5F) = 2T + F
C) To determine how many more points the winning team has than the losing team, calculate the scores of the two teams. Then subtract the smaller number from the larger number to determine the score differential.
I didn't mean to post the answer and can't figure out how to take it down. Somebody report it so it does go down and the question can be later answered. Thank you
