Answer:
A) p = 2x - 4 for the expression. B) Your team scored 44 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <u>P</u> represent the points your team made.
Since the question says "Your basketball team scored 4 fewer than twice as many points as the other team." this is how I came up with the expression.
p = 2x - 4 ( our points = 2 times more then the other teams points minus 4.
Using this expression and the given information that the other team made 24 points, I solved B.
44 = 2(24) - 4.
If a< c< b then a<c and c<b
Separate the equation into 2 separate ones and solve them:
X-9 < 4x +3
Subtract 3 from both sides:
X-12 < 4x
Subtract x from both sides:
-12< 3x
Divide both sides by 3:
X > -4
4x+3 < 27
Subtract 3 from both sides
4x < 24
Divide both sides by 4
X <6
Combine to get one inequality:
-4<x<6

Answer:
Janelle's height is 82 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let j represent Janelle's height.
It is mentioned that, 58 is the difference between Janelle's height and 24.
Mathematically, we can write it as :
j-24 = 58
We can solve it as follows :
Adding 24 both sides,
j-24+24 = 58+24
j = 82
Hence, Janelle's height is 82 units.

Step-by-step explanation:
Andrea recipe for cranberry relish is
1 3/4
