To calculate the remaining number of teams, use the sequence formula:
a(n) = a(1)Rⁿ-¹
Where a(n) and a(1) are the nth and first terms. R is the factor. Therefore, 24 teams is valid value.
After 5 rounds :
a(5) = 128*(½)⁴
a(5) = 128/16 = 8
8 teams are remained.
Answer: The Last option is the only option equivalent to that equation.
When a linear equation is in the form y = mx + c, the c, or constant, is the intercept on the y axis, meaning it crosses the y axis at (0, 1).
The gradient (1/3 in this case) is how much the y increments (or decrements) per increase of 1 of the value of x.
This would mean that there would be one point at (0, 1), and another at (3, 2). Draw a line from these two points and beyond, and that is the graph sketched.
Both the length and width of shed A are 6 feet.
I multiplied 6 by 2 and got 12.
My new equation is 12 × 12 × 8....
Which is 1,152. The answer is H.
Answer:
(x, y) = (1, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll write these equations in general form, then solve using the cross-multiplication method.
43x +67y +24 = 0
67x +43y -24 = 0
∆1 = (43)(43) -(67)(67) = -2640
∆2 = (67)(-24) -(43)(24) = -2640
∆3 = (24)(67) -(-24)(43) = 2640
These go into the relations ...
1/∆1 = x/∆2 = y/∆3
x = ∆2/∆1 = -2640/-2640 = 1
y = ∆3/∆1 = 2640/-2640 = -1
The solution is (x, y) = (1, -1).

<em>Additional comment</em>
The cross multiplication method isn't taught everywhere. The attachment explains a bit about it. Our final relationship changes the order of the fractions to 1, x, y from x, y, 1. That way, we can use the equation coefficients in their original general-form order. (The fourth column in the 2×4 array of coefficients is a repeat of the first column.)
