Answer:

  • no
  • the goal total would be too high

Step-by-step explanation:

If Sadie had scored 4 goals, Connor would have scored 2 times 4 = 8 goals. Their goal total would then be 4+8 = 12, not 9. Sadie cannot have scored 4 goals.

__

If we let s represent the number of goals Sadie scored, then 2s is the number Connor scored. Their total is ...

  s + 2s = 9

  3s = 9 . . . . . . collect terms

  s = 9/3 = 3 . . . divide by the coefficient of s

Sadie scored 3 goals. (s=4 is not the solution to the problem)

Think about it this way. Imagine a graph in your head. Left is negative. Right is positive. Up is positive and down is negative. Think of the numbers as rise over run. Vertical then horizontal. Because the gym is negative then positive you would need a number that is to the left then up.

Hope this helped:)

Solve the system by substitution.<br> 2x - y + z = -4<br> z = 5<br> -2x + 3y - z = -10
Kobotan [32]
Substituting z = 5 into the first equation:

2x - y + 5 = -4
y = 2x + 9

Substituting y and z into the third equation
-2x + 3(2x + 9) - 5 = -10
4x + 27 = -5

x = -8
y = 2(-8) + 9 = 7
z = 5
