The Mt. Vernon Christian High basketball team played 24 games during the basket-
ball season. They won 4 games more than
they lost. How many games did they win?

Let x represent the number of games they lost. Then they won 24 + x games. Since the team played 70 games, x + (24 + x) = 70. Thus 2x + 24 = 70. Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we have x + 12 = 35. Hence, x = 35 - 12 = 23.

step-by-step explanation:

given that ab is divided into equal parts as

ac, cd, de, ef, fg, gh, hi, ib.

from this we find that f is the midpoint of ab.

so using mid point formula we find

f = (3,7)

similarly considering fb, we get

h = mid point of fb = ((6,6) and g, mid point of fh is

g = (9/2, 13/2)

i is mid point of hb

so i =(15/2,11/2)
