The equation that describes the relation between the number of games (g) and the number of teams (n) is given as follows:
g = n^2 - n
Now, we are given that the number of games is 132. This means that g=132. To know the number of teams, substitute with the given g in the given equation as follows:
g = n^2 - n
132 = n^2 - n
n^2 - n - 132 = 0 .......> factorize this expression
(n-12)(n-11) = 0
This means that:
either n = 12 teams
Or n = -11 teams (this solution is rejected as the number of teams cannot be negative)
Therefore, based on the above calculations, if the number of games is 132, then, the number of teams is 12
Answer:
3.2
The value of C when B is 5 is 3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there is no number for the number of pounds for the polar bear, you would use p to represent polar bears. The expression would be: 1578 - p. Good luck
The correct answer is 0.09
We are given that 80% of scheduled flights really take
place, therefore this means that:
Probability of flying = 80% = 0.80
Now in statistics class, we know that the probability of
two or more independent events to occur is simply equivalent to the product of
their probabilities, or mathematically written as: (P = Probability)
total P = P1 * P2 * P3 *...
In this case, since we are to find for the probability
that 3 independent flights will occur, therefore the total probability assuming
equal probabilities to fly is:
total probability = 0.80 * 0.80* 0.80
total probability = 0.512
or
total probability = 51.20%
This means that there is only a 51.20% chance for 3
flights to occur.
