Question

During the 2017 Major League Baseball season, the Detroit Tigers played 162 games . They lost 34 more games than they won. What was the teams win-loss record? Help me please .

Answer 1

win: 64

loss: 98

Explanation:

win: x

loss: x + 34

win + loss = total games

x + x + 34 = 162

2x + 34 = 162

2x = 128

x = 64

win: 64

loss: (64) + 34 = 98
