Answer 2

Given,

The minimum points required to get into playoffs$\[ = 20\]$

The number of points allotted for the win$\[ = 2\]$

The number of points allotted for the tie$\[ = 1\]$

Solution,

Assume that x is the number of wins and y is the number of ties.

Therefore,

$\[ \Rightarrow 2x + 1y = 20\]$

Refer to the table for different values of x and y.

Hence, the equation is $\[2x + 1y = 20.\]$
