Respuesta :

Based on the information given, the value of x is 28 which means that Rovers scored 28 goals.

Number of goals scored by Rovers = x

United scored 8 goals more than rovers. This will be = x + 8

City scored 3 goals less than twice the number of goals scored by rovers. This will be: = 2[x} - 3 = 2x - 3

Since the three teams scored a total of 117 goals, this will be:

x + x + 8 + 2x - 3 = 117
