At a rugby tournament, each player on the top two teams receive medals. if 66 medals are purchased for the tournament, and each team has the same number of players, write an equation and then solve for the total number of medals needed for each team.

2x=66

33 medals for each team

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

So, if we multiply the number of teams (2) by the number of medals needed for each team(x), that would be equal to the 66 medals purchased for the tournament.

Mathematically speaking;

2x=66

Solving;

x = 66/2

x =33

33 medals for each team .

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
