Step-by-step explanation:
Assume the following:
Brad has been in the soccer team for b years.
Scot has been in the soccer team for s years.
"The number of years that brad has been on the soccer team is 2 less than 5 times the number of years that Scott has"
means: b=5s-2
"in total,the boys have been on the soccer team for 10 years."
means: b+s=10
so we have the equations:
i) b=5s-2
ii) b+s=10
substitute b in ii) with 5s-2, as they are equal, from i
(5s-2)+s=10
5s-2+s=10
6s=12
s=2,
then , from b+s=10, b=8
Answer: Brad has been in the team for 8 years.
