Question

ronaldo scored 4 goals in his first soccer game. He then scored the same amount of goals in his next 3 games. If Ronaldo has 10 games total, how many did he score in each game? write an equation and solve.

Answer 1

4x10=40
The answer is 40

Answer 2

3x+4=10

x=2 (he scored 2 goals)

Explanation:

First, write an equation. We know that he got the same score for three games. This score will be x. We also know he has an extra 4 goals, which we have to add to 3x (3 times x number of goals) to get a total of 10. Now, let's write out the equation. 3x+4=10.

To solve, first subtract 4 from each side. Now, 3x=6. Divide by 3 on each side to get x=2.

So, in each game, he scored 2 goals.
