X = y + 5
(x + y) = 3y - 3

y + 5 + y = 3y - 3

5 + 3 = 3y - 2y
8 = y

x = y + 5
x = 8 + 5
x = 13

Then we must multiply 120x88

A football team loses a total of 12 yards in 4 plays. On average how many yards did the team move the ball per play?

HACTEHA [7]

The team moved the ball -3 yards per play.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total yards lost = 12 yards

Total plays = 4 plays

As the yards are lost, therefore, we will use negative sign.

Yards per play = $\frac{Number\ of\ yards}{Number\ of\ plays}$

Yards per play = $\frac{-12}{4}$

Yards per play = -3

The team moved the ball -3 yards per play.
