The equation that describes the relation between the number of games (g) and the number of teams (n) is given as follows:
g = n^2 - n

Now, we are given that the number of games is 132. This means that g=132. To know the number of teams, substitute with the given g in the given equation as follows:
g = n^2 - n
132 = n^2 - n
n^2 - n - 132 = 0 .......> factorize this expression
(n-12)(n-11) = 0
This means that:
either n = 12 teams
Or n = -11 teams (this solution is rejected as the number of teams cannot be negative)

Therefore, based on the above calculations, if the number of games is 132, then, the number of teams is 12

How much principle, to the nearest dollar, should you invest at 4 percent in order to have $3000 for a vacation to Europe in 3 y
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Principle should be $2,667

Step-by-step explanation:

We need $3000 for a vacation to Europe in 3 years.

Using amount formula,

A=P(1+r)^t

Where, P is principle (P=?)

A is amount (A=3000)

r is rate of interest (r=0.04)

t is time (t=3)

Substitute the values into formula and solve for P

3000=P(1+0.04)^3

3000=P(1.04)^3

P=\frac{3000}{1.04^3}

P=2666.98

P\approx \$2667

Hence, Principle should be $2,667
