The total of dharma's, Eugene, and Ferns final exam score is 272 Dharma score is added to Eugene score the sum is 28 points less than twice ferns score if Eugene score is eight point higher than Dharma score what is each student's final an exam score?

Answer 1

X = Ferns' score.
2x-28 = D. + E. score.

x + 2x-28 = 272.
3x = 300.
X = 100.

2x-28 = 2*100 - 28 = 172 = D. + E.

Y = D. score.

Y+8 = E. score.

Y + Y+8 = 172.
2y = 164.
Y = 82.

Y+8 = 82 + 8 = 90.
