Apenalty in meteor - mania is - 5 seconds. a penalty in cosmic calamity is - 7 seconds. yolanda had penalties totaling -25 seconds in a game of meteor- mania and -35 seconds in a game of cosmic calamity. in which game did yolanda receive more penalties? justify the answer.

Yolanda had the same number of penalties in both games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both of these penalties can be modeled by a first order equation.

Game of Meteor-Mania:

In a game of Meteor-Mania, each penalty is -5 seconds. So the expression for the total of penalties is:

Tp(n) = -5*n, where n is the number of penalties.

In the game of Meteor-Mania, Yolanda had penalties totaling -25 seconds. So

-25 = -5*n *(-1)

5n = 25

n = 25/5

n = 5

Yolanda had 5 penalties in the game of Meteor-Mania

Game of Cosmic Calamity

In a game of Meteor-Mania, each penalty is -7 seconds. So the expression for the total of penalties is:

Tp(n) = -7*n, where n is the number of penalties.

In the game of Cosmic Calamity, Yolanda had penalties totaling -35 seconds. So

-35 = -7n *(-1)

7n = 35

n = 35/7

n = 5

Yolanda had 5 penalties in the game of Cosmic Calamity

Yolanda had the same number of penalties in both games.
