Answer:

<em></em>

<em>The team must win 2 games to have a win : loss ratio o 2.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <u>Ratio win : loss, r</u>:

       r = total wins / total losses

       

  • <u>Total wins, Tw</u>:

        Call n the number of new wins:

        Tw =number of wins until so far + number of new win = 6 + n

  • <u>Total losses, Tl</u>:

        Tl = number of losses so far + number of new losses = 4 + 0 = 4

  • <u>Target ratio</u>:

        r = 2 ⇒ Tw / Tl = (6 + n) / 4 = 2

Solve for n:

  • (6 + n ) = 4 × 2
  • 6 + n = 8
  • n = 8 - 6
  • n = 2

Hence,<em> the team must win 6 more games.</em>

  • <u>Verification</u>: (6 + 2 ) / 4 = 8 / 4 = 2, which is the target ratio.

CAN SOMEONE PLZzzz Plzzzz HELP!!!???

First plot the points. Let’s just use the first graph. When you have done that. Draw a triangle. Find the right angle and look at what line is across from that. That is the hypotenuse. That is the length that you are trying to find. So you have to do your equation: a^2 + b^2 = c^2. A and B have to be the length of the other 2 lines(just count it). When you have done that repack you a and b with your #s. And what ever is equal to you c. Then that is you answer. (Im sorry if this was confusing)

Find the solution of this system of equations.
solmaris [256]
X=5+y

Substitute the value of x in second equation
28x – 9y= -12
28 (5+y)-9y =-12
140 +28y -9y =-12
140 +19y= -12
19y = - 152
y= -8



Now let's find the value of x using y

x= 5+y
x= 5 + (-8)
= -3

So,
x= -3
y=-8

Charity is four times as old as her daughter. She is also six years younger than her husband. The sum of their ages ten years to
zubka84 [21]

Answer: Charity is 36 years old today.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Present age of daughter.

Age of Charity = 4x

Age of her husband = 4x+6

After 10 years,

Age of daughter = x+10

Age of Charity = 4x+10

Age of her husband = 4x+6+10=4x+16

As per given,

x+10+4x+10+4x+16=117

9x+36=117\\\\ 9x=117-36\\\\ 9x=81\\\\ x=9

Present age of Charity = 4(9)=36 years

Hence, Charity is 36 years old today.

What is the equation of a circle with center (-3, -1) that contains the point (1, 2)?
Leno4ka [110]
So, we know the center is at -3,-1, ok

hmmm what's the radius anyway?   well, we know that there's a point at 1,2 that is on the circle's path...hmmmm what's the distance from the center to that point?  well, is the radius, let's check then.

\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\&#10;\begin{array}{lllll}&#10;&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;&({{ -3}}\quad ,&{{ -1}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&({{ 1}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})&#10;\end{array}\qquad &#10;%  distance value&#10;d = \sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;r=\sqrt{[1-(-3)]^2+[2-(-1)]^2}\implies r=\sqrt{(1+3)^2+(2+1)^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;r=\sqrt{16+9}\implies r=\sqrt{25}\implies r=5

so, what's the equation of a circle with center at -3, -1 and a radius of 5?

\bf \textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ &#10;(x-{{ h}})^2+(y-{{ k}})^2={{ r}}^2&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{array}{lllll}&#10;center\ (&{{ h}},&{{\quad  k}})\qquad &#10;radius=&{{ r}}\\&#10;&-3&-1&5&#10;\end{array} &#10;\\\\\\\&#10;[x-(-3)]^2+[y-(-1)]^2=5^2\implies (x+3)^2+(y+1)^2=25
