Ethan bought 3 new baseballs. Bethany has three times as many baseballs as Ethan now has. Let x=the number of baseballs Ethan had before he bought any new ones. Together they now have 44 baseballs.
A. Write an equation to represent the equation.
B. How many did Ethan have before he bought any new ones?


Sagot :

4x+12 .  (x=8)

Ethan had 8 baseballs before he bought any new ones.
The equation is
(X + 3) + (x + 3 ✖️3)=44
Ethan had 12 baseballs.
Steps:
1. You do 44 dived by 3 which is 14.66 repeating
2. You subtract 3
2. You get 11.66 repeating
