Question

The goals against average (A) for a professional hockey goalie is determined using the formula A = 60 a equals 60 left-parenthesis StartFraction g Over t EndFraction right-parenthesis.. In the formula, g represents the number of goals scored against the goalie and t represents the time played, in minutes.

Which is an equivalent equation solved for g?

StartFraction A t Over 60 EndFraction equals g.= g
StartFraction A Over 60 t EndFraction equals g. = g
StartFraction 60 A Over t EndFraction equals g. = g
60At = g

Answer 1

Start with A = 60(g/t). Multiply both sides by t: At = 60g. Divide both sides by 60: g = (A t)/60.

So the correct equivalent is: g = (A t)/60 (the first option).
