During a hone run hitting contest Joe D hit 5 more home runs then ted w, ted w hit 8 more home runs then willie M. Altogether the three baseball players hit 105 hone runs, how many home runs did Ted W hit

Respuesta :

Answer: 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Willie number of home run he represented by x.

Since ted w hit 8 more home runs than willie M, Ted home runs = x + 8

Since Joe D hit 5 more home runs than ted w, Joe D home run will be: = x + 8 + 5 = x + 13

Since they hit 105 home runs together, this will be represented as:

x + (x+8) + (x+13) = 105

x + x + 8 + x + 13 = 105

3x + 21 = 105

3x = 105 - 21

3x = 84

x = 84/3

x = 28

Number of Ted home run will be:

= x + 8

= 28 + 8

= 36
