your baseball team has won 6 games and lost 4 games. if the team does not lose any more games, how many games must the team win

puteri [66]

Answer:

The team must win 2 games to have a win : loss ratio o 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio win : loss, r:

r = total wins / total losses

Total wins, Tw:

Call n the number of new wins:

Tw =number of wins until so far + number of new win = 6 + n

Total losses, Tl:

Tl = number of losses so far + number of new losses = 4 + 0 = 4

Target ratio:

r = 2 ⇒ Tw / Tl = (6 + n) / 4 = 2

Solve for n:

(6 + n ) = 4 × 2
6 + n = 8
n = 8 - 6
n = 2

Hence, the team must win 6 more games.

Verification: (6 + 2 ) / 4 = 8 / 4 = 2, which is the target ratio.

$\text{Hey there!}\\\\\\\text{In order for you to solve this equation you need to distribute}\\\text{-6(-k) = 6k \& -6(4) = -24}\\\\\text{New equation: 19 + 6k + (-24)}\\\\\text{Combine your like terms (if there is any)}\\\text{(6k(19+(-24)))}\\\text{Your like terms are: 19 + (-24) = -5}$

$\text{Your new equation is: 6k + (-5)}\\\\\text{+ \& - = -}\text{\underline{ (positive \& negative equals negative)}}\\\\\text{The number in the center will be a negative}\\\\\boxed{\boxed{\text{Answer: 6k - 5}}}\checkmark\\\\\\\\\\\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}\\\\\frak{LoveYourselfFirst:)}$
