Question

medal and fan for help(:
A home team's score was 92 points. If you doubled the visiting team's score and subtracted 40, you would also have 92 points. What was the visiting team's score? (Guess and check or a table may work well here.)
Select one:
a. 66
b. 142
c. 33
d. 71

Answer 1

its A

Answer 2

Well you know that the home tea had 92...and the visiting had 40 more than double that..

V = 2x - 40

The total score was 92 so

92 = 2x - 40
+40 +40

2x = 132
-------
2 2

x = 66

Answer 3

because if u times 2 bye 66 its 132 and if u minus 40 its 92:)
