Problema Solution
hocky teams recieve 2 points when they win and 1 point when they tie. In one season a team won the championship with48 points. They won 9 more games then they tied how many wins and how many ties did they have
Answer provided by our tutors
games won = w
games tied = t
w = t + 9
2w + t = 48
Substitute: w = t + 9
2w + t = 48
2( t + 9 ) + t = 48
2t + 18 + t = 48
3t = 30
t = 10
Substitute: t = 10
w = t + 9
w = 10 + 9
w = 19
They won 19 games and tied 10 times.
