If 32 teams participate in a standard single elimination tournament, how many games must be played to decide a champion?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

<h3>Answer: 31 games</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

32/2 = 16 games will happen in round 1. Afterward, 16 teams are left.
16/2 = 8 games will happen in round 2. Afterward, 8 teams are left.
8/2 = 4 games happen in round 3.
4/2 = 2 games in round 4.
2/2 = 1 game as the final championship.

Count the number of times you divide by two and we have five occurrences of this. So there five rounds overall.

To get the total number of games played, we add up the quotients

16+8+4+2+1 = 31

----------------

Or as a shortcut we can simply subtract off 1 since 1+2+4+...+2^n = 2^(n+1)-1

We can write that rule as

$\displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^{n}2^k = 2^{n+1}-1$

which is equivalent to

$\displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^{n}2^{k-1} = 2^n-1$

Can anyone figure this out?

$\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points} \\\\ N(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{10})\qquad A(\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3})\qquad \qquad d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2} \\\\\\ NA=\sqrt{(6+3)^2+(3-10)^2}\implies NA=\sqrt{130} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ A(\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{3})\qquad D(\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1}) \\\\\\ AD=\sqrt{(6-6)^2+(-1-3)^2}\implies AD=4 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf D(\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad N(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{10}) \\\\\\ DN=\sqrt{(-3-6)^2+(10+1)^2}\implies DN=\sqrt{202}$

now that we know how long each one is, let's plug those in Heron's Area formula.

$\bf \qquad \textit{Heron's area formula} \\\\ A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}\qquad \begin{cases} s=\frac{a+b+c}{2}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a=\sqrt{130}\\ b=4\\ c=\sqrt{202}\\[1em] s=\frac{\sqrt{130}+4+\sqrt{202}}{2}\\[1em] s\approx 14.81 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=\sqrt{14.81(14.81-\sqrt{130})(14.81-4)(14.81-\sqrt{202})} \\\\\\ A=\sqrt{324}\implies A=18$

2) You translate an object point 3 units to the right and 2 units down. Explain (with the aid of an equation) how you would find

uysha [10]

Answer: By adding 2 to y and subtracting x by 3.

Step-by-step explanation: Let’s use the equation y = x since it’s simple. In order to translate an equation anywhere to the right, you have to subtract x by a unit. Since it’s 3 units, the equation is now y = x - 3. To translate an equation down, you have to add a unit to y. Since the questions asks for two units, add 2 to y. The equation should now be y + 2 = x - 3.
