Question

Write an equation for this scenario and solve.

Diego scored 9 points less than Andre in the basketball game. Noah scored twice as many points as Diego. If Noah scored 10 points, how many points did Andre score?

Answer 1

Diego scored 14 points

x = 14

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

lets call andere A and diego D.

so

A-9=D

D times 2 = n

now we divide 10/2 and thats 5

diego scored 5 points so we can sub in

A-9=5

now we add 9. making 14

ANDRE SCORED 14
