Pete played in 2 games. He scored 4 fewer points in the second game than he scored in the first. He scored 12 points on the second game. How many points did he score in the first game? Write an equation with the variable x:

Solve the equation

16  x - 12 = 4 or 4 + 12 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

if he scored 4 fewer than the first game that means 4 + 12 = 16

so: x - 12 = 4 or 4 + 12 = x

93.8

step-by-step explanation:

lets say, first number = x

second number = 3x+7

total = 49

(x)+(3x+7)= 49

4x+7 = 49

4x = 42

x = 42/4

x= 10.5

x= 10.5

3x+7 = 3(10.5)+7 = 93.8

hope this

number one is the correct answer
