Answer:

Team A = 4 players

Team B = 5 players

Team C = 1 players

Step-by-step explanation:

Each player will compete in nine matches, for a maximum total of nine points possible. Since Team C has an average score of 9, Team C can only have one player because it would be impossible for more than on player to score a nine.

The possible total scores for team B are:

B =3.6x\\x=1; B=3.6\\x=2; B=7.2\\x=3; B=10.8\\x=4; B=14.4\\x=5; B=18.0\\x=6; B=21.6\\x=7; B=25.2\\x=8; B=28.8\\x=9; B=32.4

Since the scoring possibilities are 0, 0.5 and 1, total team score must be a multiple of 0.5. Therefore, the only possible number of players for team B is 5 (for a total score of 18.0).

If there are 10 players in total, 5 are from team B and 1 is from team C, the remaining 4 players are part of team A.

Team A = 4 players

Team B = 5 players

Team C = 1 players

Alexus [3.1K]

4x+6y=56 and y=4x can be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented, where x represents number of small cars and y represents number of large cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people hold by small cars = 4

Number of people hold by large cars = 6

Let,

Number of small cars = x

Number of large cars = y

The students rented 4 times as many large cars as small cars,

y = 4x    Eqn 1

which altogether can hold 56 people.

4x+6y=56   Eqn 2

4x+6y=56 and y=4x can be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented, where x represents number of small cars and y represents number of large cars.
