Question

What would be the equation for #23???

Answer 1

Hi there!

Let r be the number of matches that Rebecca's team won.

We know that Katheryn's team won 9 more matches than Rebecca's team, and we know that Katheryn's team won 52 matches.

Using this given information, we can create the following equation.

$r+9=52$

If you wish to solve this, we can subtract both sides by 9 to get the following value for r.

$r=43$

Have an awesome day! :)
