Team A: 15 points
Team B: 3 points
Team A has twelve more points than Team B:
A = B + 12
Team A has five times as many points as Team B:
A = B × 5
A = 5B
substitute "A" with "B + 12" to solve for B:
A = 5B
(B + 12) = 5B
B + 12 = 5B
12 = 5B - B
12 = 4B
3 = B
Team B has 3 points
now substitute "B" with 3 to solve for A:
A = 5B
A = 5(3)
A = 15
Team A has 15 points
Check your answer by inputting both values into either equation:
A = 5B
(15) = 5(3)
15 = 15 ✔
A = B + 12
(15) = (3) + 12
15 = 15 ✔
8.95 x 2 = 17.90
23.65 - 17.90 = 5.75
The answer is £5.75
The equation 3x² - 48x + 6856 represents the area of the gym and track together in terms of width.
<h3>What is the area of the rectangle?</h3>
It is defined as the area occupied by the rectangle in two-dimensional planner geometry.
The area of a rectangle can be calculated using the following formula:
Rectangle area = length x width
We have:
A rectangular building for a gym is three times as long as it is wide. Just inside the walls of the building, there is a 6ft rectangular track along the walls of the gym and has an area of 7000ft²
Let x be the width of the rectangle.
As the area of track along the walls of the gym is 7000ft²
(x - 12)(3x - 12) = 7000
After simplifying:
3x² - 48x + 6856 = 0
Thus, the equation 3x² - 48x + 6856 represents the area of the gym and track together in terms of width.

The new equation is
<em>Y = (x-8)² </em>.
The other way to write it is like this: (you might not recognize it in this form)
Y = x² - 16x + 64
