Question

While playing a round of golf, Tina had a score of three under par after the first threeholes. Write and solve an equation to find Tina's average score per hole h after threeholes.

Answer 1

We can use the following relationship to determine the average score per hole:

`3h=-3`

To solve the equation we divide both sides by 3:

`(3h)/(3)=-(3)/(3)`

Solving the operations:

`h=-1`
