In 2012-2013 nba regular season, the miami heat won two more than four time as many games as they lost. the heat played 82 games. how many wins and losses did the team have

Respuesta :

Let us suppose Miami heat lost x games and won y games.

Now, we have been given that the Miami heat won two more than four time as many games as they lost. Therefore, we have below equation

[tex]y=2+4x[/tex]

Now, the heat played 82 games. Therefore, we have

[tex]x+y=82[/tex]

On substituting the value for y from above equation, we get

[tex]x+2+4x=82\\ \\ 5x=80\\ \\ x=16\\ \text{Thus, the value for y is given by}\\ y=2+4 \times 16\\ \\ y=2+64\\ \\ y=66[/tex]

Therefore, Miami heat won 66 games and lost 16 games.
