Answer:

3x + 7y > 21

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 7y > 21

where:

x = number of field goals needed to win

y = number of touchdowns (plus extra point) needed to win

Since your team is 21 points behind and you want to win the game, not tie it, the number of field goals and touchdowns must result in a number higher than 21, not equal to or higher than.

(4÷y+2) +(2÷y-3) =(6÷y+6)
Evgesh-ka [11]
<span>Simplifying 4(y + -3) = 6(y + 2) Reorder the terms: 4(-3 + y) = 6(y + 2) (-3 * 4 + y * 4) = 6(y + 2) (-12 + 4y) = 6(y + 2) Reorder the terms: -12 + 4y = 6(2 + y) -12 + 4y = (2 * 6 + y * 6) -12 + 4y = (12 + 6y) Solving -12 + 4y = 12 + 6y Solving for variable 'y'. Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-6y' to each side of the equation. -12 + 4y + -6y = 12 + 6y + -6y Combine like terms: 4y + -6y = -2y -12 + -2y = 12 + 6y + -6y Combine like terms: 6y + -6y = 0 -12 + -2y = 12 + 0 -12 + -2y = 12 Add '12' to each side of the equation. -12 + 12 + -2y = 12 + 12 Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0 0 + -2y = 12 + 12 -2y = 12 + 12 Combine like terms: 12 + 12 = 24 -2y = 24 Divide each side by '-2'. y = -12 Simplifying y = -12</span>
