Number of games they won: W
Number of games they lost: L

They played 60 games:
(1) W+L=60

They won 24 more than they lost:
(2) W=L+24

We have a system ofr 2 equations and 2 unkowns:
(1) W+L=60
(2) W=L+24

Using the method of substitution. Replacing W by L+24 in the first equation:
(1) W+L=60
(L+24)+L=60
L+24+L=60
2L+24=60

Solving for L
2L+24-24=60-24
2L=36

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
2L/2=36/2
L=18

Replacing L by 18 in the second equation:
(2) W=L+24
W=18+24
W=42

Answers:
How many games did they win?  42
How many games did they lost?  18

In Lesson 3.05 we discussed comparing the key features of two functions given in different forms. Given the functions below:
professor190 [17]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:


a) Compare the y-intercepts of f(x) and g(x). Use complete sentences.

The  functions f(x) and g(x) are different, the y-intercepts  for each function is y-intercepts (0,-1/3) for f(x)= 1/x-3 and y-intercepts  (0,0) for g(x) as shown on the graph.


b) Compare the vertical asymptotes of f(x) and g(x). Use complete sentences.

The  functions f(x) and g(x) have different Vertical Asymptotes, f(x)= 1/x-3 Vertical Asymptotes is x = 3 while g(x) as shown on the graph Vertical Asymptotes is   x = 4. Both functions do have Horizontal Asymptotes that are the same y = 0
