Answer:
15 players played in the chess tournament.
Step-by-step explanation:
When there are 15 players, the first player plays 14 games and step aside.
remaining 14 player
next player plays 13 games. steps aside
remaining 13 players
next player plays 12 games. steps aside
remaining 12 players
next player plays 11 games. steps aside
remaining 11 players

.
Last player plays 1 game and steps aside
remaining 1 player who will not play against himself.
∴ Sum of all games played
= 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 105 games played
Answer:
(x-2), (x+2), (3x-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Factors of 3: ±1, ±3
Factors of 20: ±1, ±2, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20
Possible factors of the polynomial: ±1, ±2, ±3, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20, .... (there's a lot more but you probably do not need to list them all)
Pick a number to divide the polynomial by (I picked 2)
(3x³-5x²-12x+20)÷(x-2) = 3x²+x-10
So (x-2) is a factor of f(x) = 3x³-5x²-12x+20
Factor 3x²+x-10 = (3x-5)(x-2) these are the other factors of f(x) = 3x³-5x²-12x+20
Answer:
Its closer to 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
24 candies originally
Step-by-step explanation:
Add the 4 to how many you had left, then think about that number, 16, and what goes into 16 evenly 2 times? 8 and originally she gave away 1/3 of the box and if you were to add another 8 to the box it would be 24 divided by 1/3, -,-4,= 12.
900 : 1
The linear ratio = a : 30a = 1 : 30
volume ratio = 1³ : 30³ = 1 : 900
ratio of larger to smaller = 900 : 1
