-1 Let's say the set of downs starts at the 20 yard line (maybe the kicking team kicked deep, the receiving team took a knee and so play starts at the 20).
Ok - we're at the 20. First down - they advance 5 yards. So we're now at the 25. We can write that mathematically as:
20
+
5
=
25
So the second play they get sacked deep and lose 6 yards. So we subtract 6:
25
−
6
=
19
So what's the change in yardage for the 2 plays? We are on the 19 and started at the 20, so we can write:
19
−
20
=
−
1
and this makes sense because we know we advanced 5 and fell back 6
For this, we use simultaneous equations. Let George's page be g, Charlie's be c and Bill's page be b.
First, <span>George's page contains twice as many type words as Bill's.
Thus, g = 2b.
</span><span>Second, Bill's page contains 50 fewer words than Charlie's page.
Thus, b = c - 50.
</span>If each person can type 60 words per minute, after one minute (i.e. when 60 more words have been typed) <span>the difference between twice the number of words on bills page and the number of words on Charlie's page is 210.
We can express that as 2b - c = 210.
Now we need to find b, since it represents Bill's page.
We can substitute b for (c - 50) since b = c - 50, into the equation 2b - c = 210. This makes it 2(c - 50) - c = 210.
We can expand this to 2c - 100 - c = 210.
We can simplify this to c - 100 = 210.
Add 100 to both sides.
c - 100 + 100 = 210 + 100
Then simplify: c = 210 + 100 = 310.
Now that we know c, we can use the first equation to find b.
b = c - 50 = 310 - 50 = 260.
260 is your answer. I don't know where George comes into it. Maybe it's a red herring!</span>
