Miguel and Beth like to play video games together. Miguel has m video games, and Beth has b video games. Miguel has 4 more video games than Beth, and together they have a total of 24 video games. Which system of equations can be used to find how many video games belong to each friend?

Respuesta :

miguel has 14 video games, and Beth has 10. 

Answer:

m - b = 4 and m + b = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Miguel has m video games and Beth has b video games.

Now the statement is "Miguel has 4 more video games the Beth".

So equation will be m = b + 4 -------------(1)

Second statement is "together they have a total of 24 video games."

so equation will be m + b = 24 ------------(2)

so system of equations will be

m - b = 4 and m + b = 24
