Question

Bryson and lilly played a game of darts and lilly scored 4 more the Bryson the total of the score was 180 how many points did each of them score

Answer 1

Answer : The score of Bryson and lilly is, 88 and 92 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation :

Let the score of Bryson be, 'x'

So, the score of lilly will be, $x+4$

Given:

Total score = 180

So, the equation will be:

$x+(x+4)=180$

$2x+4=180$

$2x=180-4$

$2x=176$

$x=\frac{176}{2}$

$x=88$

The score of Bryson = x = 88

The score of lilly = x+4 = 88+4 = 92

Thus, the score of Bryson and lilly is, 88 and 92 respectively.

Answer 2

Well, we know that Lilly scored 4 more points than Bryson. So we could write that 
Lilly's score = Bryson's score plus 4. Or L=B+4 Now we also know that 
Lilly's score + Bryson's score = 180. So L+B=180 Now We can substitute in L in the second equation to get B+B+4=180 so B+B=176 and B=88 The we put B into the first equation and find that 
L=92.
