Ok, so let’s take the given phrase.
Eight more than the product of 3 and a number is -13. A translation to numbers looks like this:
3x + 8 = -13
Now, let’s solve for x. We can start the process by subtracting 8 from both sides.
3x = -21
now, we will divide each side by 3 to isolate the variable, thus solving for x.
x = -7
Let your final bowling score be x. It is 14 pins less than your friends final score. Your friends final bowling score is 105. Then x is 14 pins less than 105.
1 way: This means that 105 is greater than x by 14. Mathematically,
105-x=14,
-x=14-105,
-x=-91,
x=91.
2 way: When you add 14 to x, you'll get 105.
x+14=105,
x=105-14,
x=91.
Answer: Your final score is 91.
Y = 4 x - 9
y = - 3 x - 5
