<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.

Answer:
15y=-1/3x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x15y=-5x+75
The Law of Cosines features the 3 side lengths of a triangle, plus the measure of the angle opposite one of those sides.
We want angle x, which is opposite the side of length 39.
Then: a^2 = b^2 - 2ab cos C becomes 39^2 = 36^2 + 59^2 - 2(36)(59)cos x
or 1521 = 3481 + 1296 - 2(36)(59) cos x
Subtract (3481+1296) from both sides: 1521 - 4777 = -4248cos x
-3256 = -4248cos x
-3256
Then: cosx = --------------- = 0.766
-4248
Solving for x: x = arccos -0.766 = 0.698 radian, or 40 degrees (answer)
