The number of football games with a score less than or equal to 29 is equal to half the number of basketball games with a score
greater than or equal to .
For both sports, if the only games won were those with scores of 30 or higher, how many more basketball games were won compared to football games won?
What is the difference between the total maximum possible points scored by the basketball team last year and the total maximum possible points scored by the football team last year?
points
basketball player scored 40 points in a game. The number of three-point field goals the player made was 22 less than three times the number of free throws (each worth 1 point). Twice the number of two point field goals the player made was 11 more than the number of three point field goals made. Find the number of free-throws, two point field goals, and three point field goals that the player made in the game.
Once I have the equations I understand how to do the problem, but I am obviously doing something wrong because each time I write out the equations I end up getting fractions.
I believe it is the first option, as you can see that, on the right hand side, 4a was multiplied to the first term to make a common denominator. I'm sorry if it is wrong, and I hope this helped.
