Since there is 3 goals in 2 games there would be 1.5 (3 divided by 2). Now that we know how much goals they get in 1 game, mutiply 9 x 1.5 = 13.5. They scored 13.5 in 9 games. Hope it helps :))

The number of goals that would be scored by this soccer player in 9 games is 13.5 goals.

Given the following data:

  • Game A = 2 games.
  • Goals A = 3 goals.
  • Game B = 9 games.

To determine the number of goals that would be scored by this soccer player in 9 games, we would apply direct proportion:

How to apply direct proportion.

We would write an expression to indicate the number of goals that was scored in both game A and game B respectively:

3 goals = 2 games

X goals = 9 games

Cross-multiplying, we have:

[tex]3 \times 9 = 2X\\\\27=2X\\\\X = \frac{27}{2}[/tex]

X = 13.5 goals.
