Kim's softball team was playing in the championship game. When there were 4 innings left, the team was losing by a score of 17 to 6 points. In the last 4 innings, her team scored the same number of points per inning, and the other team did not score any more points. Kim's team won with the most points.
Find the minimum whole number of points per inning Kim's team could have scored.

I think the answer is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kim's team scored the same number of innings to win the game and Kim's team already had 6 points so four times a number has to be greater than 17.

4* 3 + 6= 18

which means the minimum number can't be less than three so they may have scored three or more points in  each of the four innings that was left.

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0
