x/10 + x/4 = 21  /*40

4x + 10x = 840

14x = 840

x = 60 = total number of points the team scored

Answer:

Total number of points in game is 60.    

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given in the question:

Let x be the total scored in the game.

Contribution of Brian in the game = \displaystyle\frac{x}{10}

Contribution of Joe in the game = \displaystyle\frac{x}{4}

Total contribution of Brian and Joe in the game = 21

According to the question, the following equation can be used to represent the situation:

\displaystyle\frac{x}{10} + \displaystyle\frac{x}{4} = 21

\displaystyle\frac{7x}{20} = 21\\\\ 7x = 20\times 21\\x = 60

Thus, the total score of the game was 60.
