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?

1 answer

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).

We can rewrite the equation as y = (104/4)x.

So, Pedro scored an average of (104/4) points per game.

To calculate this, we can simplify the fraction:

(104/4) = 26

Therefore, Pedro averaged 26 points per game.
