In a basketball game, Elena scores twice as many points as Tyler. Tyler scores four points fewer than Noah, and Noah scores three times as many points as Mai. If Mai scores 5 points, how many points did Elena score? Explain your reasoning.

Respuesta :

Mai scored 5 points
Noah scores 5 x 3 = 15
Tyler scores 15 - 4 = 11
Elena scores 11 x 2 = 22
Therefore Elena scored 22 points.

The score earned by Elena is 22 points.

Given that,

  • In a basketball game, Elena scores twice as many points as Tyler.
  • Tyler scores four points fewer than Noah, and Noah scores three times as many points as Mai.
  • And, Mai scores 5 points.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

Since Mai scored 5 points

So here  

Noah scores should be

[tex]= 5 \times 3[/tex]

= 15

Now

Tyler scores is

= 15 - 4

= 11

And, Elena scores should be

[tex]= 11 \times 2[/tex]

= 22

Therefore we can conclude that The score earned by Elena is 22 points.
