Lets write an equation for each guy's shots and score:
4A + 2B = 18
3A + 3B = 21
To solve we multiply the first equation by -3 and the second by 2:
-12A - 6B = -54
6A + 6B = 42
--------------------
-12A + 0 = -12
A = 1
to find B we substitute in the first equation:
<span>4A + 2B = 18
</span><span>4(1) + 2B = 18
</span><span>4 + 2B = 18
</span>2B = 14
B = 7
therefore there were given 7 points in an arrow in B

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y - x = - 2 b
Step-by-step explanation:
Given-
3 x + 2 y = 5 a + b...................(i)
4 x - 3 y = a + 7 b.....................(ii)
<em><u>Multiply by 3 and 2 in equation (i) & (ii) respectively-</u></em>
<em><u>Add equation (iii) & (iv)-</u></em>
9 x + 6 y = 15 a + 3 a...................(iii)
<u>8 x - 6 y = 2 a + 14 b</u> ...................(iv)
17 x = 17 a + 17 b
<u>x = a + b</u>
Put x = a + b in equation (i)-
<em>2 y = 5 a + b - 3 a - 3 b</em>
<em>2 y = 2 a - 2 b</em>
<u>y = a - b </u>
<em>∴ y - x = a - b - ( a + b )</em>
<em>y - x = a - b - a - b</em>
y - x = - 2 b

Answer:
15 x^8 y^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is given by
A = l*w where l is the length and w is the width
A = ( 5x^6 y^2) *( 3x^2 y)
= 15 x^(6+2) y^(2+1)
= 15 x^8 y^3
