After a really rotten year in 2008, a baseball team won 120% as many games in 2009, which was 84 games. how many games did they win in 2008?

40 games

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the team won 84 games in 2009

let the number of games they won in 2008 be x.

given:

2009 wins = 120% of 2008 wins

mathematically,

84 = 120% of x

84 = (120/100) x

x = 84 (100/120) = 40 games

this is answer of 144 cubic meters

a) y = -3x +2

b) y = 1/2x -6

these 2 can be combined into one equation.

-3x +2 = .5x -6

8 = 3.5x

x = 8 / 3.5 = 2.2857142857

y = -3 * (8 / 3.5) +2

y = (-24 / 3.5) + 2

y = -4.8571428571
