A team has 3 wins for every loss they loss games how many did they win??

1 answer:

5 0

The team has lost only 6 games (according to the comments). Let's say "x" is the amount of losses and "y" is the amount of wins.

For every loss, they have 3 wins, so in the end, this would be the equation:
$y = 3x$
or
$y = 3 \times x$
Although the first one would be the easier and most understandable to read.

So:
y = 3(6)
would equal
18

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral (has 4 sides and 4 angle) with two pair of parallel and opposite sides. Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal.

Given parallelogram ABCD:

AB = CD = 18 cm; BC = AD = 8 cm

∠P = ∠P, ∠PDA = ∠PCQ (corresponding angles are equal).

Hence ΔPCQ and ΔPDA are similar by angle-angle similarity theorem. For similar triangles, the ratio of their corresponding sides equal. Therefore:

$\frac{CD}{PC}= \frac{AD}{CQ}\\\\\frac{18}{6}=\frac{8}{x} \\\\x=\frac{6*8}{18}=\frac{8}{3}\ cm$
