<span>Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. For every game, there is 2 team playing. The order is not important because  A vs B is same as B vs A
So you just need to makes a combination of 2 that have a result of 21. If there is t number of teams, the number of matches would be:
tC2 = t!/2!(t-2)! = 21
</span>t! / (t-2)! = 21 *2
(t)(t-1)= 42
t^2 -t -42=0
(t-7)(t+6)
t=7 ; t=-6

Excluding the minus result, you got 7 teams.

Which of the following statements are true?
lana [24]

Answer:

B, C, E, & F

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is incorrect because the equation Ax = b is referred to as a matrix equation, not a vector equation.

Option B is correct. If Ax = b has a solution, vector b will a linear combination of columns of matrix A.

Option C is correct. In a matrix equation, product Ax when defined, is a sum of products.

Option D is incorrect. If an augmented matrix [Ab] had a pivot position in every row, there could be a pivot in the last column which would make it inconsistent.

Option E is correct. If the columns of an m×n matrix A spanR^m, then the equation Ax=b is consistent for each b in

Option F is correct. IfA is an m x n matrix whose columns do not span, then the equation Ax = b is inconsistent for some b in R^m

Options B, C, E, and F are correct.

Answer:

a² + b² = 68

a3 + b3 = 520

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

a + b = 10 (1)

ab = 16 (2)

A. Find a² + b²

(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b² (3)

Substitutite the values of (1) and (2) into (3)

(10)² = a² + 2(16) + b²

100 = a² + 32 + b²

Subtract 32 from both sides

100 - 32 = a² + b²

a² + b² = 68

B. a^3 + b^3

(a + b)^3 = a^3 + b^3 + 3ab(a + b)

(10)^3 = a^3 + b^3 + 3*16(10)

1000 = a^3 + b^3 + 480

a^3 + b^3 = 1000 - 480

a3 + b3 = 520
