<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
Call n the number of new wins:
Tw =number of wins until so far + number of new win = 6 + n
Tl = number of losses so far + number of new losses = 4 + 0 = 4
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.
16 balls.
Let's call x the total number of golf balls that Ricardo had before he lost the first 6 balls. (x - 6).
Then he bought 12 more and lost 4 so basically 12 - 4 = 8
Add that to the equation: (x-6) + 8
And now that he has 18 golf balls at end of the second day the total must add to 18.
Full equation: (x-6) + 8 = 18
(x-6) + 8 = 18
(x-6) = 18 - 8 <-- Transpose
(x-6) = 10
16 - 6 = 10 <-- What would x have to be inoder to make this equation true? 16!
So x = 16
16 is the number of golf balls the Ricardo began with.
Answer:
The Tempature dropped 18 degrees Fahrenheit is 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
A coefficent is a numerical or constant quantity placed before and multiplying the variable in an algebraic expression. Or in other words, the number being multiplied with the variable. For example, the 4 in 4x.
The expression is -3x + 1. If we go back to the definition, the coefficient is the number combined with the variable.
So the answer is -3.
Hope it helps!
