Answer:

315

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the 15 teams plays each of the other 14, for a total of 210 games. However, that count includes both A playing B and B playing A. Hence, if the teams meet 3 times, the total number of games will be 3/2 this amount:

(15)(14)(3/2) = 315 . . . league games

Which expression can be used to approximate the expression below,for all positive number a,b and x where a =/ 1 and b=/ 1

rodikova [14]

Answer:

The correct option is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$log_ax$

The value of a is 1 and the value of b is 1.

According to the logarithm property,

$log_mn=\frac{log_pm}{log_pn}$

Using this property, we get

$log_ax=\frac{log_bx}{log_ba}$

The required expression is $\frac{log_bx}{log_ba}$ .

$log_1x=\frac{log_1x}{log_11}$

$log_1x=log_1x$ $[\because log_aa=1]$

Left hand side is equal to the right hand sides, therefore option 1 is correct.

Which inequality represents the value of x that ensures triangle abc exists?

olasank [31]

Answer:

Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to triangle inequality theorem, a triangle exists if the sum of two sides is greater that third side.

Apply this theorem on each combination.

Case I: $(2x+4)+6x>18$

$8x+4>18$

$8x>14$

$x>\dfrac{14}{8}$

$x>\dfrac{7}{4}$ ...(1)

Case II: $(2x+4)+18>6x$

$2x+22>6x$

$22>4x$

$\dfrac{22}{4}>x$

$\dfrac{11}{2}>x$ ...(2)

Case III: $6x+18>2x+4$

$6x-2x>4-18$

$4x>-14$

$x>-\dfrac{14}{4}$

$x>-\dfrac{7}{2}$ ...(3)

On combining (1), (2) and (3), we get

$\dfrac{7}{4}$

Therefore, the correct option is A.
