Answer:

Nolan hitted 8 home runs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number of home runs that Nolan hitted by N, and that Davis hitted by D.

So, we can write the following equations:

N = 2 * (D - 6)

N + D = 18

Now we can solve the system of equations, using the value of N from the first equation in the second one:

2 * (D - 6) + D = 18

2*D - 12 + D = 18

3*D = 30

D = 10

Now we find N:

N + D = 18

N + 10 = 18

N = 8

So we have that Nolan hitted 8 home runs.

50=4(x-7)-6(3x-6)

Firstly , we can distribute

50=4x-28-18x+36

CONSTRUCTION Carlos is building a screen door. The height of the door is I foot more than twice its width. What is the width of
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

<h2>width = 3 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h be the height of the door

and w be its width

The statement “The height of the door is I foot more than twice its width”

can be translated mathematically like this :  h = 2w + 1

Let’s solve the equation for w:

h = 2w + 1

⇔ 2w = h - 1

\Leftrightarrow w=\frac{h-1}{2}

now , if the door is 7 feet high then it’s width is equal to :

\Rightarrow \frac{7-1}{2} =\frac{6}{2} =3 \ ft
