The Tigers won twice as many football games as they lost. They played 96 games. How many games did they win?

W + L = 96
w = 2L

2L + L = 96
3L = 96
L = 96/3
L = 32.....so they lost 32

w = 2L
w = 2(32)
w = 64 <== they won 64 games

What is equation is equivalent to 6(3p-2)=20?

Simora [160]

Answer:

$p=\frac{16}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$6(3p-2)=20$

Distribute the brackets.

$6(3p)+6(-2)=20$

$18p-12=20$

Add $12$ on both sides.

$18p-12+12=20+12$

$18p=20+12$

$18p=32$

Divide $18$ on both sides.

$\frac{18p}{18}=\frac{32}{18}$

$p=\frac{16}{9}$

Triangle J is shown below. James drew a scaled version of Triangle J using a scale factor of 4 and labeled it

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

The area of triangle K is 16 times greater than the area of triangle J

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If Triangle K is a scaled version of Triangle J

then

Triangle K and Triangle J are similar

If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

Let

z -----> the scale factor

Ak ------> the area of triangle K

Aj -----> the area of triangle J

so

$z^{2}=\frac{Ak}{Aj}$

we have

$z=4$

substitute

$4^{2}=\frac{Ak}{Aj}$

$16=\frac{Ak}{Aj}$

$Ak=16Aj$

therefore

The area of triangle K is 16 times greater than the area of triangle J

Rewrite the parametric equations by eliminating the parameter. Select ONE.

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

$Y=(X-7)/2$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$X=2t+3$ -----> equation A

$Y=t-2$ -----> $t=Y+2$ -----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A

$X=2(Y+2)+3$

$X=2Y+4+3$

$X=2Y+7$

solve for Y

$2Y=X-7$

$Y=(X-7)/2$
