Randy Johnson pitches 150 pitches during his warm-up and the game. If, Randy threw 37 pitches during his warm-up, how many pitches did he throw in the game? What is the equation? Show your work.
Since he threw 150 total, the equation should look like this:
$${\mathtt{x}}{\mathtt{\,\small\textbf+\,}}{\mathtt{37}} = {\mathtt{150}}$$
x is the number of game pitches. To determine x from the equation, subtract 37 from both sides of the = sign,giving you:
x=150-37
x=113
