A softball team hopes to win at least 3 games
for every 2 lost during the season. If there are
45 games scheduled, how many games can the
team lose and still achieve its goal?

Respuesta :

Answer:

y=27

x=18

Step-by-step explanation:

x-games won

y-games lost

x+y=45

3x=2y

x=45-y

3(45-y)=2y

135-3y=2y

135=3y+2y

135=5y

y=27

x=(45-27)

x=18
