Question

Amy's bowling score in her third game was 10 points less than her score in the first game and 5 points more than her score in the second game. The total points for the game was no more than 275. What is the greatest number of points Amy could have scored in her first game?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let, the 3rd game score be x

then 1st game score becomes = x+10

2nd game score becomes = x-5

total=275

x+x+10+x-5=275

3x+5=275

x= 270÷3

x=90

1st game score becomes = x+10= 90+10= 100
