Answer:

the expression is x= 2.5 * z/√y  

Step-by-step explanation:

since x is proportional to z and since x varies inversely as the square root of y

x= a * z/√y  

then

a = x*√y /z

replacing values

a = x*√y /z = 6*√25 /12 = 30/12 = 10/4=2.5

therefore

x= 2.5 * z/√y

Answer:

The expression for x in terms of y and z is x = \frac{2.5z}{sqrt(y)} or x = \frac{5z}{2sqrt(y)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between x, y and z can be expressed as;

x α \frac{z}{sqrt(y)}

x = C × \frac{z}{sqrt(y)}, where C is a constant of proportionality

Now, given the values of x, y and z, we can have that;

6 = C × \frac{12}{sqrt(25)}

6 = C × \frac{12}{5}

C = 6 × \frac{5}{12} = 2.5 or \frac{5}{2}

Putting the value of C in the equation, we have;

x = \frac{2.5z}{sqrt(y)} or \frac{5z}{2sqrt(y)}

In a small chess tournament, 20 matches were played. Find out how many people were involved if it is known that each participant
Nina [5.8K]

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,

=\ ^nC_2

As they played 2 games with every other participant in the tournament.

So the total number of games is,

=\ 2\times ^nC_2

But it is given to be 20, so

\Rightarrow \ 2\times ^nC_2=20

\Rightarrow \ ^nC_2=10

\Rightarrow \dfrac{n!}{2!(n-2)!}=10

\Rightarrow \dfrac{n(n-1)}{2}=10

\Rightarrow {n(n-1)=20

As 5\times 4=20, so we get n=5.

Therefore, 5 players participated in the tournament.

Answer:

Second option

Third option

Fourth option

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following quadratic function

f(x) =(x-1)(x+7)

Use the distributive property to multiply the expression

f(x) =x^2+7x-x-7

f(x) =x^2+6x-7

For a function of the form f (x) = ax ^ 2 + bx + c the x coordinate of the vertex is:

x =-\frac{b}{2a}

Then in this case the coordinate of the vertex is:

x =-\frac{6}{2(1)}

x =-3

To obtain the y coordinate of the vertex we evaluate the function at x = -3

f(-3) =(-3)^2+6(-3)-7

f(-3) =9-18-7

f(-3) =-16

Then the vertex is:  (-3, -16)

We can see in the graph that the zeros of the function are x=1 and x=-7

Then the function is decreasing from -∞ to -3 and then it is increasing from -3 to ∞

The function is positive for x and x> 1

The correct answers are:

Second option

Third option

Fourth option
