Let the lowest score be x.
<u>The 3 consecutive even scores are:</u>
1st score = x
2nd score = x + 2
3rd score = x + 4
-
<u>Sum of their score is 270:</u>
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 270
-
<u>Solve x:</u>
x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) = 270
x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 270
3x + 6 = 270
3x = 264
x = 88
-
<u>Find their scores:</u>
1st score = x = 88
2nd score = x + 2 = 88 + 2 = 90
3rd score = x + 4 = 88 + 4 = 92
-
Answer: The scores are 88, 90 and 92
They give you the equation for Louis, and the table for Carl. Just find out Carl's equation by dividing the money earned by the time. 45 divided by 3 equals 15. Check it by the next time, 75 divided by 5 equals 15. So Carl's equation is y = 15x. 15x ( Carl's) greater than 12x ( Louis's).
-4x(-p)x(-q)
Therefore the answer is -4pq
