Question

The number of points that Pedro scored in the basketball game is represented by the equation 4y=104x . In this equation, y represents the total number of points and x represents number of games. How many points did Pedro average per game?

Answer 1

To find the average number of points Pedro scored per game, we need to divide the total number of points (represented by y) by the number of games (represented by x).

Given that the equation is 4y = 104x, we can rearrange it to solve for y:

y = 104x/4
y = 26x

Now we can substitute the value of y back into the equation:

(26x)/x = 26

Therefore, Pedro averaged 26 points per game.
