“In 2013, the New York Yankees and the Los Angeles Dodgers had the highest payrolls in Major League Baseball. The Dodgers’ payroll was $0.1 million less than the Yankees payroll, and the two payrolls totaled $473.9 million. What was the payroll for each team?”
Let’s break this problem down, so we can express it as an equation.
(a) Will the number 2013 appear in the equation?
(b) Let’s call the Dodgers’ payroll D, and the Yankees payroll Y . Write the phrase “the two payrolls totaled $473.9 million” as an equation.
(c) You would like this equation to contain just one variable. Consider the phrase “The Dodgers’ payroll was $0.1 million less than the Yankees payroll”, it tells you the relationship between D and Y . Use this to write your equation from (b) with just one variable.
