A minor league plays 101 games,
They win 14 more than twice as many as they lost.
How many wins and loses?
Okay, simple.
First, write a simple addition equation. In this case wins = w and losses = l.
l + w = 101.
Now, we have to figure out a way to make one of the terms the same term as the other, in this case we can change the terms of w to l.
l = l
w = 2l +14 (14 more than twice the amount)
Okay. So plug in the new amount for w.
l + 2l + 14 = 101. Great! we now have a simple equation. lets solve.
put similar terms together.
3l + 14 = 101
3l = 87
l = 29
So, we have 29 loses, and
w = 2(29) + 14
72 wins!
To check,
72 + 29 = 101, correct!

Answer:
15 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know:
For 4 days she runs 1500 meters each day.
For 3 days she runs 3 kilometers each day.
First off, lets convert 1500 meters into kilometers.
There are 1000 meters in a kilometer, so pluggin in 1500 meters:
1500/1000 = 1.5
So for 4 days she runs 1.5 kilometers each day.
Now, to find the total kilometers, we must find multiply the 1.5 kilometers by the 4 days, the 3 kilometers by the 3 days, then add those two together.
So lets do this:
1.5*4 = 6
So she ran 6 kilometers in the first 4 days.
Next we have:
3*3 = 9
So she ran 9 kilometers in the last 3 days.
Now finally add them together:
6 + 9 = 15
So she ran a total of 15 kilometers.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The mass of a longhorn cow.
Step-by-step explanation:
Kilograms will measure mass, not length, so we are left between two options. Kilograms would be used for heavier objects, so between a paper clip (which would be likely measured in grams,) and the longhorn, the cow would be what you would measure in kilograms.
