Answer:
Joseph caught 7 tadpoles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of tadpoles caught by Joseph be x
The number of tadpoles Wendy caught will be ;
9(x + 3)
After Joseph was upset, he released half of Wendy’s tadpole and then six times as many as Joseph caught swam away leaving Wendy with only three tadpoles left;
Hence, mathematically;
9(x + 3)/2 - 6x = 3
Multiply through be 2
9(x + 3) - 12x = 6
9x + 27 -12x = 6
9x -12x = 6-27
3x = 21
x = 21/3
x = 7

Answer:
A) p = 2x - 4 for the expression. B) Your team scored 44 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <u>P</u> represent the points your team made.
Since the question says "Your basketball team scored 4 fewer than twice as many points as the other team." this is how I came up with the expression.
p = 2x - 4 ( our points = 2 times more then the other teams points minus 4.
Using this expression and the given information that the other team made 24 points, I solved B.
44 = 2(24) - 4.

Option C is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation is :
Now, we can re write this in decreasing order of powers.
As we can see, that it is in the form of quadratic equation ;
We can assign values to a, b and c.
a = 3
b = 10
c = -5
Therefore, the answer is option C: b=10
