Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
because of the root
<span>Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. For every game, there is 2 team playing. The order is not important because A vs B is same as B vs A
So you just need to makes a combination of 2 that have a result of 21. If there is t number of teams, the number of matches would be:
tC2 = t!/2!(t-2)! = 21
</span>t! / (t-2)! = 21 *2
(t)(t-1)= 42
t^2 -t -42=0
(t-7)(t+6)
t=7 ; t=-6
Excluding the minus result, you got 7 teams.
42 firefighters in total.
16 volunteered for the special rescue team.
n + 16 = 42
or it could be this way:
42 - 16 = n
The answer is v=5x^2-100x+500. First, since we are finding the volume of a square you already know that the equation for a square is volume= length*width*height. Because 5 inches was cut off from each side, that means that each side is now 10 inches shorter than it originally was. So, then you substitute the values into the formula. So the length is x-10 and the width is also x-10 and the height is 5in. Then you write the formula like this (x-10)(x-10)5. Second, you substitute the values into the formula. Since there are 2 x's that would make x^2 and add that to 5 that would make 5x^2. Then you multiply -10*10=-100. Finally, you multiply -10*-10-5=500. Then you add them all together to get 5x^2-100x+500
