Answer:

120 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that there are 16 teams in a football league. Each team plays each other twice. We are asked to find total number of games are there in the football league.

We will use formula $\frac{n(n-1)}{2}$ to solve our given problem.

Each team will play matches with one team less as it will not play match with itself.

We will divide all number of matches by 2 to avoid repetition.

$\frac{16(16-1)}{2}=\frac{16(15)}{2}=8*15=120$

Therefore, there are 120 games in the football league.

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

step 2

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$x^{2} +10x-49=0$ ---> given problem

step 1

Move the constant to the right side

$x^{2} +10x=49$

the step 1 is correct

step 2

Complete the square

$x^{2} +10x+5^2=49+5^2$

$x^{2} +10x+5^2=74$

<u><em>The step 2 is not correct</em></u>

step 3

Rewrite as perfect squares

$(x+5)^{2}=74$

step 4

take square root both sides

$x+5=\pm\sqrt{74}$

step 5

Find the values of x

$x=-5\pm\sqrt{74}$

$x=-5+\sqrt{74}$

$x=-5-\sqrt{74}$

Which absolute value function has a graph that is wider than the parent function, f(x) = |x|, and is translated to the right 2 u

RoseWind [281]

Transformation involves changing the form of a function.

The absolute value function is $f(x)=0.3|x -2|$

The parent function of the absolute value function is:

$f(x)=|x|$

When the function is translated 2 units to the right, the new function is:

$f(x)=|x -2|$

From the function to be wider than the absolute function, the function must be stretched by a factor less than 1.

The possible function from the list of given options is $f(x)=0.3|x -2|$
