Answer:
Aaron's bowling score is 30
David's bowling score is 54
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable representing Aaron's score is = a
The variable representing David's bowling score = d
The sum of their scores is 84.
= a + d = 84...... Equation 1
David's bowling score is 6 less than 2 times Aaron's score.
d = 2a - 6
Substituting 2a - 6 for d in Equation 1
a + 2a - 6 = 84
3a - 6 = 84
3a = 84 + 6
3a = 90
a = 90/3
a = 30
Hence, Aaron's bowling score is 30
d = 2a - 6
d = 2(30) - 6
d = 60 - 6
d = 54
David's bowling score is 54
It doesn't matter how far apart just so you know and you answered it 3330 miles apart because you multiply 60 by 50
