Using proportions, it is found that they must win 19 of their next 30 games.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
We want a win-to-loss proportion of 2:1, which is equivalent to a win-to-total proportion of 2:3. We have that:
- The team will have won 5 + x games.
- The team will have played 36 games.
Hence:

3(5 + x) = 72
15 + 3x = 72
3x = 57
x = 19.
The Rangers must win 19 of their next 30 games.

#SPJ1
Y = 12x where x is the # of students and y is the # of adults
Or for every 12 students there's 1 adult
8x - 19 = 36
8x = 55
x = 55/8 = 6 7/8
-2x + 19 = -66
-2x = -85
2x = 85
x = 42 1/2
Answer:
19/2 or 9.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
4(x−5)(2)=36
8x+−40=36(Distribute)
8x−40=36
Step 2: Add 40 to both sides.
8x−40+40=36+40
8x=76
Step 3: Divide both sides by 8.
8x/8=76/8
x=19/2
Hi, I think what you need to do is multiply 21 x 4 x 1/3. If you need help multiplying there’s a helpful website called Calculator Soup that is very helpful.
