<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.

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The system of linear equations are $y=5+x$ and $x+y=25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of students who chose lunch was 5 more than the number of students who chose breakfast. Let x represent the number of students who chose breakfast and y represent the number of students who chose lunch.

(50 students picked, 25 picked dinner the rest picked lunch and breakfast)

To find : Write a system of linear equations that represents the numbers of students who chose breakfast and lunch ?

Solution :

The number of students who chose breakfast be 'x'

The number of students who chose lunch be 'y'.

The number of students who chose lunch was 5 more than the number of students who chose breakfast.

i.e. $y=5+x$

Now, Total student were 50 and 25 picked dinner the rest picked lunch and breakfast i.e. 25.

So, $x+y=25$

Therefore, the system of linear equations are $y=5+x$ and $x+y=25$
