Jim was playing a game in which he gained and lost points. First, helost four points. Next, he lost nine points. Write the total change to hisscore as an integer.

Sagot :

Let the total game played be x

The first game he played he lost 4 points

Mathematically,

Total game = lost game + gained game

x = 4 + gained game

gained game = x - 4

next game he lost 9 points again

out of the total x game he had already lost 4 and now losing 9 points

The remaining game after losing 4 will be x-4

x - 4 = lost game

the new lost game is 9 points

x - 4 = 9

isolating x

you have x = 9+4

x = 13
