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.
Answer: 2p+1.50=11.50
p = 5.00
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
<em>Note: the tip is calculated on top of the total so this figure is a redherring</em>
<u>2 pancakes</u> <em>plus</em> <u>1 fruit cup</u> <em>equals</em> <u>total bill</u>
2p + 1.50 = 11.50
2p + 1.50 = 11.50
<u> - 1.50 </u> <u> - 1.50 </u>
2p = 10.00
<u>÷2 </u> <u> ÷2 </u>
p = 5.00
