To get the total number of games possible, we will use the combination formula. 
Total number of games :  _{10}C_{2} = 45

Total of 45 games in the whole tournament.

Meanwhile, if there would be boy-versus-boy, we will have _{5}C_{2}
The answer is 10. 

The fraction for boy-versus-boy game will be 10/45 or 2/9 when simplified.

Solve for x in the equation C = 8.5x + 6y. Show all work.
8_murik_8 [283]
First we move 6y to the other side. To do this, you subtract 6y on both sides

C - 6y = 8.5x + 6y - 6y

C - 6y = 8.5x

No divide both sides by 8.5 to isolate x

\frac{C-6y}{8.5} =  \frac{8.5}{8.5} x =\frac{C-6y}{8.5} =x

Concerned with poverty, 27 adults conduct a survey. According to the results 35% of adults are concerned with poverty. Let x= nu
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, 27 adults conduct a survey.

In the results of the survey, it is found that 35% of the adults are concerned with poverty.

If we call:

x = number of adults surveyed

y = adults concerned with poverty

This means that we can write the following relationship:

y=0.35x (1)

where 0.35 represents the percentage of adults concerned with poverty, rewritten in decimal form (0.35=\frac{35}{100})

Later, we are told that 200 adults are surveyed, so now we have

x = 200

So substituting into eq(1) we can find how many of these adults are concerned with poverty:

y=0.35\cdot 200 =70
