Answer:
The difference between the games won and lost = 21 - 6 =15
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the question In a football season a team gets 3 points for a win, 1 point for a draw and 0 points for a loss.
A particular season a team played 34 games and lost 6 games . Finding the difference between game won and game lost simply means we have to know the number of game lost and game won.
The team played a total of 34 games.
Total games played = 34
Out of the 34 games played they lost 6 games. That means the remaining games is either win or draw. Therefore,
34 - 6 = 28 games was won or draw
Let
the number of games won = x
the number of game drew = y
3x + y = 70.............(i)
x + y = 28................(ii)
x = 28 - y
insert the value of x in equation(i)
3(28 - y) + y = 70
84 - 3y + y = 70
84 - 70 = 3y -y
14 = 2y
divide both sides by 2
y = 14/2
y = 7
insert the value of y in equation(ii)
x + y = 28
x = 28 - 7
x = 21
The team won 21 games , drew 7 games and lost 6 games.
The difference between the games won and lost = 21 - 6 =15
