3x7=21
So, if Larue scored 10 points less than 3 times the number of points that Ross scored, Ross would have scored 7.
Ross --- x
Larue --- 3x - 10
3x-10 = 11
3x = 21
x =7
Ross scored 7 and Larue scored 11
Larue --- 3x - 10
3x-10 = 11
3x = 21
x =7
Ross scored 7 and Larue scored 11
so if larue scored 11 points multiply 3 by 11 and subtract 10 which would give you 23
