Question

There are 12 teams in the Jayhook Hockey League. Each team plays every other team twice per season, once at home and once away from home. Last season 34 of the matches played resulted in a tie. Of the others, 18 more were won by the home team than by the away team. 1: How many games did any one particular team play?

Answer 1

Answer:

Each team played 22 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 teams in the league, so each team has 11 rival teams. Since each team will play against a rival team twice, that means that each team will need to play 11 x 2 = 22 games per season. Of these 22 games, 11 games will be played at home while 11 games will be played away from home.

We can calculate this by using the following formula:

Total number of games played by each team = (n - 1) x 2, where n is the total number of teams in a league.
