In a recent golf match, Becky's score was 5 less than Cathy's score their combined score totaled 185 let b represent Becky's score and c represent Cathy's score which pair equation can be used to determine their scores

If Becky's score was 5 less than Cathy's, then we would write:

b = c - 5

If Becky's and Cathy's scores add up to 185, then we would write:

b + c = 185

These are the two equations:

b = c - 5

b + c = 185

It says that b represents Becky's score and c represents Cathy's score.

Becky's score was 5 less than Cathy's score, its equation can be written as : -

b = c - 5

It says that their combined score totaled 185, its equation can be written as : -

b + c = 185

So, correct pair of equations is b = c - 5 and b + c = 185.
