Solve the following real-world problem: Ahmadullah's basketball team will play 21 games this season. That is 12 more games than 13

the number of games they played last season. How many games did they play last season?(1 point)

1 answer

To solve this problem, let's set up an equation using algebra. We know that Ahmadullah's team will play 21 games this season, which is 12 more games than the number of games they played last season.

Let's say the number of games they played last season is represented by the variable "x".
Therefore, we can write the equation:

x + 12 = 21

To isolate "x" on one side of the equation, we need to subtract 12 from both sides:

x + 12 - 12 = 21 - 12
x = 9

Therefore, Ahmadullah's basketball team played 9 games last season.
