Together, Louisa and Jill scored more than 30 points in the basketball game. If Jill scored 12 points, how many points P did Louisa score? A. P > 18

Answer :

wizard123
L+J > 30

J = 12

L + 12 > 30

Subtract 12 from both sides

L > 18

Answer:

Option A) P > 18 is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Louisa and Jill scored jointly in basketball = Score of Louisa + score of Jill

Joint score is greater than 30 points

So Score of Louisa P + score of Jill > 30

If Jill scored 12 points then inequality becomes as

score of Louisa P + 12 > 30

Now by subtracting 12 from both side

score of Louisa P + 12 - 12 > 30 - 12

score of Louisa P > 18
