Answer:

5 runs

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial number is 64 players

<u>Number of players reduce twice every run and will be equal to 2 to reach the grand final</u>

64*(1/2)^x = 2
(1/2)^x = 1/32
2^-x = 2^-5
-x = -5
x = 5

Number of runs is 5

64 > 32 > 16 > 8 > 4 > 2

Help me please ;-;!!!!! Use a coordinate grid to create a map of a town with at least five different locations, such as a house,

Sholpan [36]

A. Our diagram have six location: my house (2,1), a movie theater (5,3), the school (6,6), the police station (3,-2), the airport (-3,3), and the mall (-2,-3)

B. Distance between my house and the movie theater:
To calculate the distance we are going to use the points (2,1) and (5,3) to create a right triangle with tow legs of measures 3 and 2; the hypotenuse of the right triangle will be the distance between my house and the movie theater.
Using the Pythagorean theorem:
$d^2=3^2+2^2$
$d^2=9+4$
$d^2=13$
$d= \sqrt{13}$
We can conclude that the distance between my house and the movie theater is $\sqrt{13}$

Our second distance is the distance between the police station and the airport:
This time we are using the points (3,-2) and (-3,3) to create a right triangle with legs of measures 6 and 5; the hypotenuse of our triangle will be the the distance between our points:
$d^2=6^2+5^2$
$d^2=36+25$
$d^2=61$
$d= \sqrt{61}$
We can conclude that the distance between the police station and the airport is $\sqrt{61}$

C. Distance form the park to the Fire Station:
$d^2=3^2+1^2$
$d^2=9+1$
$d^2=10$
$d= \sqrt{10}$
We can conclude that the distance from the park to the Fire Station is $\sqrt{10}$

Distance from the stadium to the mall:
$d^2=2^2+1^2$
$d^2=4+1$
$d^2=5$
$d= \sqrt{5}$
We can conclude that the distance from the stadium to the mall is $\sqrt{5}$

D. What is the distance between your house and the mall?
Answer:
$d^2=4^2+4^2$
$d^2=16+16$
$d^2=32$
$d= \sqrt{32}$
$d=4 \sqrt{2}$
We can conclude that the distance between my house and the mall is $4 \sqrt{2}$

What is the distance between the movie theater and the school?
answer:
$d^2=3^2+1^2$
$d^2=9+1$
$d^2=10$
$d= \sqrt{10}$
We can conclude that the distance between the movie theater and the school is $\sqrt{10}$

Kaylee is selling candles to raise money for her lacrosse team. The large candles sell for $25 each and the small

EastWind [94]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Cost of large candle (a) = 25 each

Cost of small candles (y) = 10 each

Amount needed = $600

Number of each that must be sold to raise needed amount:

25a + 10y = 600.

Here a = number of large candles that must be sold at the price

y = number of small candles that must be sold at the price

Summing the revenue both should result in the required amount.

If<br>find the values of x and y.

uysha [10]

5-2=3 so x is equal to 3
-3+10 is equal to 7 so y is equal to 10
With this we can conclude that x=3 and y=10
I hope that helps :)
