4(5x-20)=-20
20x-80=-20
20x=60
x=3
1000-60=940 these are random numbers i added together
Subtraction is "addition of the opposite."
8 - 9 = 8 + (-9)
-7 - 2 = -7 + (-2)
-6 - (-3) = -6 + 3
Answer:
f(2)=5
q(2) =-5
p(2) = 5
f(x) and p(x) has the same output value
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.
