wow tht was fast..but how did u set yur equations up....i have to identify 3 variables and 3 equations....variables are easy but the equations are a lil harder...........

anonymous · Answer

actually that's a system of equations, just like what you are saying/

anonymous · Answer

California = x
Louisana = y
Florida = 35-x-y
florida ansd louisiaana hosted 2 more than twice than california hosted so
35-x-y +y = 2y +2
35-x=2x+2 
x=11 

florida hosted 6 more games than louisiana
so  35-x-y  = y +6
putting x =11 
y= 9
