Relax. Take deep breaths. Feel the fresh air flowing down to your toes.
It's only some lame math. It can't scare you, because you have a brain
and you know how to use it.
You need to find the Patriots' score. You don't know what it is yet, so
let's give it a label. I've got a brilliant idea ! Let's call it 'P' !
What do we know ?
We know that the Patriots won the game, so we know that the Giants'
score was less than 'P'.
How much less was it ? The question tells us that the difference in
their scores was 20. So the Giants scored P-20 in the game.
What else do we know ? The question tells us the sum of the scores.
OK. Let's addum up:
Patriots' score: P
Giants' score: P - 20
Sum of the scores: P + (P - 20) = 2P - 20
The question tells us that their sum was 44.
OK. 2P - 20 = 44
That's an equation. Solve it for 'P' and you'll have the answer.
Add 20 to each side: 2P = 64
Divide each side by 2: P = 32
There you are. The Patriots scored 32.
The Giants scored 20 less ... (32 - 20) = 12.
The sum of their scores was (32 + 12) = 44.
Everything checks out.

Answer:it costs $1150 to rent the apartment for one month.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost to rent the apartment for one month.
They must pay the landlord two months' rent and $500 security deposit when they sign the lease. This means that the security deposit is constant and independent of the number of months that they want to pay for.
The total amount they pay the landlord is $2800. Therefore
2x + 500 = 2800
2x = 2800 - 500 = 2300
x = 2300/2 = 1150
