Annette’s soccer team will play 15 games this season. That’s 7 games fewer than 2 times the number of games last season. How many games were played last season. Write the equation as a px+p=r

Answer 1

Let's represent the number of games played last season as x.
According to the problem, Annette's soccer team will play 2x - 7 games this season.
The total number of games played this season is given as 15, so we can write the equation as:
2x - 7 = 15

Simplifying the equation, we get:
2x = 22

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we obtain:
x = 11

Therefore, 11 games were played last season.
