Gwen, Alex and Manny are playing a game as a team. Gwen has scored two times as many points as Manny. Alex has scored 7 more points than Manny. Manny has scored 15 points. Which equation shows how many points their team has scored all together?

Respuesta :

First we give a variable to every person so: Gwen (G), Alex (A) and Manny (M), now we write an equation for each condition so:

Gwen has score two times as many points as Manny

[tex]G=2M[/tex]

Alex has score 7 more points than Manny so

[tex]A=7M[/tex]

and Mann has scored 15 points so:

[tex]M=15[/tex]

so the equation that shows how many point they score is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} T=M+A+G \\ T=15+7\mleft(15\mright)+2\mleft(15\mright) \end{gathered}[/tex]
