In football, a touch down is awarded 6 points and the team can then try for a point after the touchdown. If a team wins a football game 27-0, write an equation to represent the possible number of touchdowns and points after touchdowns by the winning team.

6x+x=27. X equals the amount of touchdowns, since you get 6 points per touchdown plus how many touchdowns for the additional point. So, #of touchdowns times six + # of touchdowns= All Points=27.
