Complete Question:

24 points scored in 4 games; a points scored in 10 games​. Are they equivalent?

Answer:

Both games are not equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]24\ points = 4\ games[/tex]

[tex]1\ point = 10\ games[/tex]

Required

Determine if they are equivalent

We have that:

[tex]24\ points = 4\ games[/tex] ----- (1)

[tex]1\ point = 10\ games[/tex] ----- (2)

To solve this, we simply make the number of games equal.

Multiply (1) by 2.5

[tex]2.5 * 24\ points = 4\ games * 2.5[/tex]

[tex]60\ points = 10\ games[/tex]

This implies that there are 60 points in 10 games

While for (2):

[tex]1\ point = 10\ games[/tex] means that

There are 1 point in 10 games

Hence, both games are not equivalent

Because, the number of points differ in the same number of games
