7 0

Answer:

Daniel would have to earn 35 or more points to put him and his teammate ahead.

Step-by-step explanation:

Daniel: 40 points

Zeke: 75 points

Opposing team: 150

Daniel + Zeke + x = Opposing team

40 + 75 + x = 150

- rearrange -

150 = 40 + 75 + x

150 = 115 + x

150 - 115 = x

35 = x

Answer:

$\boxed{x = 7, y = 9, z = 68}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We must develop three equations in three unknowns.

I will use these three:

$\begin{array}{lrcll}(1) & 8x + 13y +7 & = & 180 & \\(2)& 9x - 7 + 13y +7 & = & 180 & \\(3)& 8x + 5y - 11 + z & = & 180 &\text{We can rearrange these to get:}\\(4)& 8x + 13y & = & 173 &\\(5) & 9x + 13y & = & 180 & \\(6)& 8x + 5y + z & = & 169 & \\(7)& x & = & \mathbf{7} & \text{Subtracted (4) from (5)} \\\end{array}$

$\begin{array}{lrcll}& 8(7) + 13y & = & 173 & \text{Substituted (7) into (4)} \\& 56 + 13y & = & 173 & \text{Simplified} \\& 13y & = & 117 & \text{Subtracted 56 from each side} \\(8)& y & =& \mathbf{9}&\text{Divided each side by 13}\\& 8(7) + 5(9) + z & = & 169 & \text{Substituted (8) and (7) into (6)} \\& 56 + 45 + z& = & 169 & \text{Simplified} \\& 101 + z& = & 169 & \text{Simplified} \\&z& = & \mathbf{68} & \text{Subtracted 101 from each side}\\\end{array}$
