Baseball ichiro suzuki holds the american league record for the most hits in a single baseball season. in 2004, suzuki had a total of 262 hits for the seattle mariners. he hit three fewer triples than home runs, and he hit three times as many doubles as home runs. suzuki also hit 45 times as many singles as triples. find the number of singles, doubles, triples, and home runs hit by suzuki during the season.

Let Home runs = X

Triples would be X-3 ( 3 less triples than home runs)

Doubles would be 3x ( 3 times as many doubles as home runs)

Singles would be 45(x-3) ( 45 times as many singles as triples)

Simplify the equation for singles to be 45x-153

Now you have X + x-3 + 3x + 4x-135 = 262

Simplify:

50x - 138 = 262

Add 138 to both sides:

50x = 400

Divide both sides by 50:

x = 400/50

x = 8

Home runs = x = 8

Triples = x-3 = 8-3 = 5

Doubles = 3x = 3(8) = 24

Singles = 45(x-3) = 45(8-3) = 45(5) = 225

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'
