Answer:
It was Romania, so Spain.
Let the lowest score be x.
<u>The 3 consecutive even scores are:</u>
1st score = x
2nd score = x + 2
3rd score = x + 4
-
<u>Sum of their score is 270:</u>
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 270
-
<u>Solve x:</u>
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 270
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 270
3x + 6 = 270
3x = 264
x = 88
-
<u>Find their scores:</u>
1st score = x = 88
2nd score = x + 2 = 88 + 2 = 90
3rd score = x + 4 = 88 + 4 = 92
-
Answer: The scores are 88, 90 and 92
FIRST WE ...
subtract one value to the other to see how many valued we have in between
-7 - (-2) = 5
7-2=5
Both of the lines XY AND ZW have 5 units or points in between them.
Length = 5 units
They are congruent since XY = ZW in length and essentially are the same line but at different points
