Annette’s soccer team will play 15 games this season that is seven games fewer than two times the number of games they play last season how many games did they play last season represent this problem with an equation in the form px + q = r
Let's represent the number of games they played last season as "x".
From the problem, we know that the number of games they will play this season is seven games fewer than two times the number of games they played last season.
So, two times the number of games they played last season is 2x.
And, the number of games they will play this season is seven games fewer than two times the number of games they played last season, which is 2x - 7.
We are told that they will play 15 games this season, so we can set up the equation:
2x - 7 = 15
This is the equation in the form px + q = r, where p = 2, q = -7, and r = 15.
