During the 2005 football season, Team Tackle beat Team Sack by 2 points. If their combined scores totaled 82, find the individual team scores.

Respuesta :

Answer: Team Tackle has 42 points and Team Sack has 40 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Team Tackle = x + 2

Team Sack = x

With these, we can add them together and set it equal to their combined score, 82:

2x + 2 = 82

2x = 80

x = 40

Now we plug this value in for each of the teams to find their individual score:

Team Tackle = 40 + 2 = 42 points

Team Sack = 40 points

40 + 42 = 82!
