The number of points scored by the home team at a basketball game is represented by (x+6). The number of points scored by the vi
siting team is represented by (3x −6). Write an expression to find how many more runs the home team scored than the visiting team. Then evaluate the expression if the value of x is 5.
No nickles = 2x and that of dimes = 7x so 2x = 350 get x and the no of dimes so like 2x = 350 divide by 2 on both sides so x = 175 ... and no of dimes = 7*x = 7*175 = 1225 Hope it helps :)
