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 point) points per game

Answer 1

We start with the equation given:

\[ 4y = 104x \]

To find the average points per game that Pedro scored, we need to solve for \( y \) (the total points scored) in terms of \( x \) (the number of games). We can rearrange the equation as follows:

\[ y = \frac{104x}{4} \]

Simplifying the right side gives:

\[ y = 26x \]

Now, to find the average points per game, we need to find \( \frac{y}{x} \):

\[ \frac{y}{x} = \frac{26x}{x} = 26 \]

Thus, Pedro scored an average of 26 points per game.
