y = 2^x

For a 64 team tounament, 64 = 2^6, so there will be six rounds of play.

For a 128 team tounarment, 128 = 2^7, so there will be 7 rounds of play.

Any number of teams which is not a power of 2 is an inappropriate number of team for tounament play.

∆ABC is translated 2 units down and 1 unit to the left. Then it is rotated 90° clockwise about the origin to form ∆A′B′C′. The c
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

A'(-2, 1), B'(1, 0), C'(-1, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, dilation and translation.

If a point X(x, y) is translated a units right and b units down, the new location is X'(x + a, y + b) whereas if a point X(x, y) is translated a units left and b units up, the new location is X'(x - a, y - b).

If a point X(x, y) is rotated 90° clockwise about the origin, the new location is X'(y, -x)

From the image attached, ∆ABC is at A(0, 0), B(1,3) C(1, 1)

If ∆ABC is translated 2 units down and 1 unit to the left (x - 1, y - 2), the vertices would be A*(-1, -2), B*(0, 1), C*(0, -1)

If it is then rotated 90° clockwise about the origin, the new location is A'(-2, 1), B'(1, 0), C'(-1, 0)

Reduce the ratio to its lowest form. 72:8​
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

9:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Try to reduce the ratio further with the greatest common factor (GCF).  

The GCF of 72 and 8 is 8  

Divide both terms by the GCF, 8:

72 ÷ 8 = 9

8 ÷ 8 = 1  

The ratio 72 : 8 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 8 :  

72 : 8 = 9 : 1  

Therefore:

72 : 8 = 9 : 1
