Answer: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of defeats be represented by x.
Since the total number of victories exceeds the number of defeats by 4, then the number of victories will be:
= x + 4
We then add the number of victories and losses together and equate them to 44. This will be:
x + x + 4 = 44
2x + 4 = 44
2x = 44 - 4
2x = 40
x = 40/2
x = 20
Therefore number of victories will be:
= x + 4
= 20 + 4
= 24
I think that the answer is 550 people on the cruise. i used my math notes
3x4=12 gives him 12 baseballs. he has 5 fewer tennis balls than base balls so you subtract 5 from 12 and you get 7 tennis balls.
