Answer:
x = 31
Step-by-step explanation:
The given angles are supplementary and their sum is 180 degrees
5x - 16 + x + 10 = 180 add like terms
6x - 6 = 180 add 6 to both sides
6x = 186 divide both sides by 6
x = 31
Answer:
The team has 92 wins and 38 losses.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a season 130 games are played by a baseball team.
Let us assume that the team wins x games and losses y games.
Therefore, we can write, x + y=130....... (1)
It is given that if the team won sixteen more games twice as many games as it lost.
So, we can conclude that x =2y+16 ......(2)
Hence, solving equations (1) and (2) we get, (2y+16) + y =130
⇒ 3y = 114
⇒ y =38
And from equation (2), x = 2×38 + 16 = 92
Therefore, the team has 92 wins and 38 losses. (Answer)
