Kieran, Jermaine and Chris play football.

Mathematics
1 answer:
madam [21]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Find an equation that explains the problem. We can see how many goals the players have scored in comparison to each other. The person with the fewest goals is Chris. Let us say he score x goals. Then we can see that Kieran has scored 8 more than Chris, i.e. x + 8. Jermaine scored 5 more goals than Kieran, therefore x + 8 + 5 = x + 13. Now we have the amount of goals each person scored relative to each other. The total number of goals scored was 72, thus all of these amounts must equal 72.  

x + (x + 8) + (x + 13) = 72

Now we can rearrange and solve for x.

3x + 21 = 72

3x = 51

x = 17

How do I solve: 15 - w/4 = 28 (this is 2 step equations)
kenny6666 [7]
First we need to isolate the variable so we add 15 to both sides which is
w/4=43  then we need to multiply by 4 to both sides so its 4w=172
then divide by 4 which is 43 so the answer is w=43

Find all two digit positive integers in which the difference between the integer and the product of its two digits is 12
mojhsa [17]
Let ab be a 2 digit number, then ab=10a+b, where a and b are digits, a≠0.

"the difference between the integer and the product of its two digits is 12"

10a+b - (a*b)=12

10a+b-ab=12

factorize b:

10a+b(1-a)=12

subtract 10 from both sides, to produce a factor (1-a) or (a-1) and then factorize:

10a-10+b(1-a)=2

10(a-1)+b(1-a)=2

(a-1)(10-b)=2

(a-1)(10-b) can be (1,2), (2, 1), (-1, -2), (-2, -1)

if a-1=1 and 10-b=2, then a=2, b=8
if a-1=2, and 10-b=1, then a=3, b=9
if a-1=-1, then a=0, which is not possible
if a-1=-2, then a=-1, which is not possible


so the solutions (a, b) are (2, 8) and (3, 9)


Then the integers are 28, 39


Answer: 28, 39
