Answer 1

Greetings,

I hope so far you and your family are safe and I wish y'all good health.

To find the expression that represents the number of hits he got in the rest of the game, we need to understand what the problem is telling us. So let's break it down:

The number of hits in one season is 52 hits

The number of hits in one game = h

Now let's just call the number of hits he got in the rest of the games be T

Therefore, now we can say that the number of hits he got in the rest of the games is equal the number of hits in one season minus the number of hits in one game.

Thus, the expression that shows that is t = 52 - h

I hope my answer helps you and I wish the best of luck as you finishing up the year!
