Solving a linear equation we conclude that the opponent's score is 30 points.
Here we know that your school's football team score is 49 points, and we also know that this is 19 points more than the opponent's score.
If now we define a variable x as the opponent's score, we know that x will be 19 less than your team's score, then we can write the simple linear equation:
x + 19 = 49
By subtracting 19 in both sides, we get:
x = 49 - 19 = 30
x = 30
We conclude that the opponent's score is 30 points.
