No it not correct because you had forgot to divide +5 form -2 and that will give you it will be 2.5 but in fraction form it will be -2 1/2
Given :
Runs scored by home team is (x + 7).
Runs scored by visiting team is (3x - 7).
To Find :
An expression to find how many more runs the home team scored than the visiting team. Then evaluate the expression if the value of x is 6.
Solution :
Let, number of more runs the home team scored than the visiting team is R.
R = (x + 7) - (3x - 7)
R = 14 - 2x
Now, putting value of x = 6 in above equation, we get :
R = 14 - 2( 6 )
R = 2
Hence, this is the required solution.
Every 2 inches is 5 miles right? we start off with 10 divided by 2, which gives us 2 inches, thats one step done! now we need to do .6 divided by two, .5 is 1 and .1 is .2. our answer should be 3.2 inches.
