Given:
Jamie and Marshall's team tied Shawna and Wyatt's team for the top team score.
Marshall scores 12 less than Jamie. Shawna scored twice as much as Marshall. Wyatt scored 4 less than Shawna.
To find:
The individual score of each person.
Solution:
Let x be the score of Jamie.
Marshall scores 12 less than Jamie.
Marshall score = x-12
Shawna scored twice as much as Marshall.
Shawna score = 2(x-12)
Wyatt scored 4 less than Shawna.
Wyatt score = 2(x-12)-4
Now,
Score of Jamie and Marshall's team 
Score of Shawna and Wyatt's team 
Jamie and Marshall's team tied Shawna and Wyatt's team



Isolate x.


Divide both sides by -2.


So, Jamie score = 20
Marshall score = 20-12
= 8
Shawna score = 2(20-12)
= 2(8)
= 16
Wyatt score = 2(20-12)-4
= 2(8)-4
= 16-4
= 12
Therefore, the scores of Jamie, Marshall, Shawna and Wyatt are 20, 8, 16 and 12 respectively.

Answer:
This cannot be explained properly by me, but the answer is 4 3/4*1 1/3 divided by (7 1/2-1 1/6). I just did a lot of trial and error
Step-by-step explanation:
Width =3.5, length = 4
Let's make a few equations to summarize what we know.:
a = 14
l = 2w -3
a = wl
Now let's substitute the expression for l into the expression for area and solve.
a = w(2w - 3)
a = 2w^2 - 3w
14 = 2w^2 - 3w
0 = 2w^2 - 3w - 14
which factors into
(2w - 7) (w + 2)
Solving for w
2w - 7 = 0
2w = 7
w = 3.5
w+2 = 0
w = -2
So w can be either 3.5 or -2. Since a negative width doesn't make sense, w = 3.5
Let's verify
w = 3.5
l = 2w - 3
l = 2*3.5 - 3
l = 7 - 3
l = 4
a = wl
a = 3.5 * 4
a = 14
So the width is 3.5 and the length is 4.
