There were 14 board games

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Let "v" be the number of video games

Let "b" be the number of board games

Given that The number of video games is 28 less than 6 times  the number of board games

number of video games = 6 times  the number of board games - 28

v = 6b - 28 ------ eqn 1

Also given that The games are 80% video games

So this means out of total games(video + board) , 80 % are video games

video games = 80 % of (video + board games)

v = 80 % of (v + b)

v = 80 \% \times (v + b)

v = \frac{80}{100} \times (v + b)\\\\v = 0.8(v + b)\\\\v = 0.8v + 0.8b\\\\0.2v = 0.8b\\\\v = 4b

Substitute v = 4b in eqn 1

4b = 6b - 28

-2b = -28

b = 14

Thus there were 14 board games

Answer:

x =  - 4 \\ x =  - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

x {}^{2}  + 28 =  - 11x \\ x {}^{2}  + 11x + 28 = 0 \\ x {}^{2}  + 7x + 4x + 28 = 0 \\ x(x + 7) + 4(x + 7) = 0 \\ (x + 4)(x + 7) = 0 \\  \\ x =  - 4 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:   \\ \: x =  - 7
