.
Last player plays 1 game and steps aside
remaining 1 player who will not play against himself.
∴ Sum of all games played
= 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 105 games played
Factor out -4
-4(x^3+3x^2-2x-6
Factor out x^2
-4(x^2(x+3)-2x-6)
Factor out -2
-4(x^2(x+3)-2(x+3))
Factor out x+3
-4(x+3)(x^2-2)
I think it is B is ur answer
Depends on how the papers are connected. if they are connected with the 7cm side joining each other, use solution one. if they are connected with the 9cm side joining each other, use solution two.
perimeter of edges of sign= 2 [(9x3)+7]
= 68 inches
left over= 144-68
= 76 inches
OR
perimeter of edges of sign= 2[(7x3)+9]
= 60 inches
left over= 144-60
= 84 inches
