Question

Sadie and Connor both play soccer. Connor scored 2 times as many goals as Sadie. Together they scored 9 goals. Could Sadie have scored 4 goals? Why or why not?

Answer 1

Answer:

No.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sadie goals = s

that means

2s+ s = 9 (2s is Connor's goals. Twice Sadie's)

3s=9

s=3

Sadie scored 3 goals
