A + B + C = 476
A = 3B + 6
C = B + 45

now its just a matter of subbing..
A + B + C = 476
(3B + 6) + B + (B + 45) = 476...combine like terms
5B + 51 = 476
5B = 476 - 51
5B = 425
B = 425/5
B = 85 <== team B scored 85

A = 3B + 6
A = 3(85) + 6
A = 255 + 6
A = 261 <=== team A scored 261

C = B + 45
C = 85 + 45
C = 130 <=== team C scored 130

Answer:

d. Team C scored 130 points.

Explanation:

I took the test and got it right.

Step 1: Write down the equation. (3x + 6) + (x + 45) + x = 476.

Step 2: Add like terms. 5x + 51 = 476.

Step 3: Subtract 51 from both sides to isolate the variable. 5x + 51 - 51 = 476 - 51 is converted to 5x = 425.

Step 4: Divide both sides by 5 to find x. You get 85 so x = 85.

After finding x substitute x for 85 and check each statement.

(3 × 85 + 6) equals 261 so a. and b. are wrong.

(85 + 45) equals 130 so c. is wrong. d. is the right answer.

Blababa [14]
<span>A(2, -2), B(4, -2), C(1, -3), D(5, -3).

A'(1, 2), B'(1, 4), C'(2, 1), D'(2, 5)

That looks like a rotation 90 degrees around the origin then a translation.  

Let's do the rotation ABCD->A"B"C"D"

The rotation is (x,y)->(-y,x)

</span>A"(2, 2), B"(2,4), C"(3,1), D"(3,5).

Compare to
 
A'(1, 2), B'(1, 4), C'(2, 1), D'(2, 5)

we need to translate one unit to the left.

Answer: 90 degree rotation around the origin then translation by (-1,0)

Five times the sum of a number and 7 equals 3
miv72 [106K]
The answer or number that you are looking for is -6.4. You can get this by dividing 3 by 5 which is equal to 0.6. Next you would subtract 7 to reverse the act of having added it. This will give you -6.4 which is what you are looking for.
