Answer:
<em>5</em><em> players participated in the tournament.</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
In a small chess tournament, 20 matches were played.
Let us assume that n number of players participated in the tournament
As in each game 2 players play, so the number of ways they can play is,

As they played 2 games with every other participant in the tournament.
So the total number of games is,

But it is given to be 20, so





As
, so we get n=5.
Therefore, 5 players participated in the tournament.
Answer:
2×(1+10)
Step-by-Step
You are just substituting in where the parenthesis go.
But I am not entirely sure.
2.25h(60m/hr)(1/3)=45m
So Rick spends 45 minutes studying math per night.
Answer:
<h2>
The eleventh term of the sequence is 64</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence given is an arithmetic sequence
14, 19, 24, …………., 264
The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given as;
Tn = a+(n-1)d where;
a is the first term = 14
d is the common difference = 19-14=24-19 = 5
n is the number of terms = 11(since we are to look for the eleventh term of the sequence)
substituting the given values in the formula given;
T11 = 14+(11-1)*5
T11 = 14+10(5)
T11 = 14+50
T11 = 64
The eleventh term of the sequence is 64
Answer:
-1280
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 ways you could do this. You could just do the question until you come to the end of f(4). That is likely the simplest way to do it.
f(1) = 160
f(2) = - 2 * f(1)
f(2) = -2*160
f(2) = -320
f(3) = -2 * f(2)
f(3) = -2 * - 320
f(3) = 640
f(4) = - 2 * f(3)
f(4) = - 2 * 640
f(4) = - 1280
I don't know that you could do this explicitly with any real confidence.
