Answer:
578 + 48 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the area of the purple band is as follows:
Area of the green square = side^2 = x^ square inches
And, the area of the orange square = side^2
The side would be = = 12 + 12 +x = 24 + x
And, now the area would be = (x + 24)^2
Now the area of the orange band is
= Area of the orange square area of the green square
= (x + 24)^2 - x^2
= x^2 + 24^2 + 48 - x^2
= 578 + 48 square inches
<h3>Answer: 31 games</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
- 32/2 = 16 games will happen in round 1. Afterward, 16 teams are left.
- 16/2 = 8 games will happen in round 2. Afterward, 8 teams are left.
- 8/2 = 4 games happen in round 3.
- 4/2 = 2 games in round 4.
- 2/2 = 1 game as the final championship.
Count the number of times you divide by two and we have five occurrences of this. So there five rounds overall.
To get the total number of games played, we add up the quotients
16+8+4+2+1 = 31
----------------
Or as a shortcut we can simply subtract off 1 since 1+2+4+...+2^n = 2^(n+1)-1
We can write that rule as
which is equivalent to
