The Cubs have won 44 baseball games and have lost 65 games. They have 53 games remaining. At least how many of the remaining 53

games must the Cubs win to have a winning season? (A winning season means they win more than 50% of their games.)

More than 50% would be 50% of the total games plus one win.
In total, there are 162 games.
44+65+53=162
50% of 162 equals 81.
The cubs must win 82 games. If they have won 44 games so far, then 82-44=36
They must win at least 56 games to have a winning season.

Hope I got it right for your sake.

8n-2(3n-3)=-2(-n-3) what is n<br> please show work
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

8n-2(3n-3)= -2(-n-3)

8n-6n+6=2n+6

2n+6=2n+6

2n=2n+6-6

2n=2n

Check

8(0)-2(3(0)-3)=-2(-0-3)

6=6

There are exactly four positive integers $n$ such that \[\frac{(n + 1)^2}{n + 23}\] is an integer. Compute the largest such $n$.
ololo11 [35]
Let's present the given equation first. Deciphering the given code, I think the equation is (n+1)²/n+23. Then, we want to find the maximum value of n. Suppose the complete equation is:

f(n) = (n+1)²/n+23

To find the maximum,let's apply the concepts in calculus. The maxima can be determined by setting the first derivative to zero. Therefore, we use the chain rule to differentiate the fraction. For a fraction u/v, the derivative is equal to (vdu-udv)/v². 

f'(n) = [(n+23)(2)(n+1)-(n+1)²(1)]/(n+23)² = 0
[(n+23)(2n+2) - (n+1)²]/(n+23)² = 0
(2n²+2n+46n+46-n²-2n-1)/(n+23)²=0
n²+46n+45=0
n = -1, -45

There are two roots for the quadratic equation. Comparing the two, the larger one is -1. Thus, the maximum value of n is -1.
