In a round-robin chess tournament every player plays one game with every other player. Five participants withdrew after playing two games each. None of these players played a game against each other. A total of 220 games were played in the tournament. Including those who withdrew, how many players participated

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  26 players to start; 21 players after 5 withdrew

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the withdrawing players did not play against each other, so the total number of games they played was 5×2 = 10. Then the number of games played by the remaining players was 220 -10 = 210. When n players play each other, they play a total of n(n -1)/2 games. Here, that total is 210, so we have ...

  n(n -1)/2 = 210

  n^2 -n = 420 . . . . . . . . .multiply by 2

  (n -1/2)^2 = 420.25 . . . . add 0.25 to complete the square

  n = 1/2 +√420.25 = 0.5 +20.5 = 21 . . . . . square root and add 1/2

The number of participating players after 5 withdrew was 21. There were 26 players to start.

If the lengths of the legs of a right triangle are 5 and 12, what is the length of the hypotenuse?

Answers

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse

a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

5^2 + 12^2 = c^2

25+144= c^2

169 = c^2

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(169) = sqrt(c^2)

13= c

Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse is 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]a^{2}[/tex] = [tex]b^2 + c^2[/tex]

[tex]a^2 = 12^2 + 5^2[/tex]

[tex]a^2 = 144 + 25[/tex]

[tex]a^2 = 169[/tex]

a=[tex]\sqrt{169}[/tex]

a= 13

Here we use the idea of the Pythagoras' theorem. Which suggests that [tex]a^{2}[/tex] = [tex]b^2 + c^2[/tex] in which  [tex]a^{2}[/tex] is the hypotenuse of the triangle and [tex]b^2[/tex] and [tex]c^{2}[/tex] are the two other lengths of the triangle.

Answers

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation: x=-2, y=3, z=-3

Answer:

A. -2, 3, -3

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 7 - 2y + z

y = 21 + 6x + 2z = 21 + 6×(7 - 2y + z) + 2z =

= 21 + 42 - 12y + 6z + 2z = 63 - 12y + 8z

13y = 63 + 8z

y = (63 + 8z)/13

2x + 2y - 3z = 11

2×(7 - 2y + z) + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11

2×(7 - 2×(63 + 8z)/13 + z) + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11

14 - 4×(63 + 8z)/13 + 2z + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11

-2×(63 + 8z)/13 - z = -3

-2×(63 + 8z) - 13z = -39

-126 - 16z - 13z = -39

-29z = 87

z = -3

y = (63 + 8×-3)/13 = (63 - 24)/13 = 39/13 = 3

x = 7 - 2×3 + -3 = 7 - 6 - 3 = -2


QUESTION 2
A board is 86 cm. in lenght and must be cut so that one piece is 20 cm. longer than the other piece
Find the lenght of each piece.

A26 cm and 60 cm
b. 33 cm and 53 cm
C 30 cm and 56 cm
d. 70 cm and 16 cm

Answers

One piece will be length x and the other piece will be 20 cm longer, so it will be x + 20 cm long.  

Added together the length of these two boards will equal 86 cm. So you can write an equation:  

x + (x + 20) = 86  

Remove the parentheses and add the two x's together to get:  

2x + 20 = 86

Subtract 20 from both sides:  

2x = 66  

Divide both sides by 2 and you have:  

x = 33  

The short piece is 33 cm and the other piece is 20 cm longer or 33 + 20 = 53 cm.

At a sale this week, a desk is being sold for $312. This is a 35% discount from the original price.
What is the original price?

Answers

Answer:

$480

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original price be x

{Original price - discount amount = sale price}

So, x - (x * 35/100) = 312

x - 35x/100 = 312

100x - 35x / 100 = 312

65x/100 = 312

65x = 31200

x = 31200/65

x = $480

So I think the original price of desk was $480

The original price of the desk is $480.

What is discount?

A discount is the reduction of either the monetary amount or a percentage of the normal selling price of a product or service.

Given that, a desk is being sold for $312.

Let the original price of the desk be x.

Here, x-35% of x =312

x- 35/100 ×x=312

x-0.35x=312

0.65x=312

x=312/0.65

x=480

Therefore, the original price of the desk is $480.

This is the solution for [tex]x\in[0, 2\pi ][/tex], recall the unit circle.

Therefore,

[tex]\sin(x)=\dfrac{1}{2} \implies x=\dfrac{\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{5\pi }{6}[/tex]

The process of copying an angle through construction involve ensuring

that the distance between the two rays forming the angle is the same or

equal in the original and copy of the angle at a given equal distance from

the vertex of both angles

The step where the error occur is step 4. She measured the incorrect length

The reason for the above selection is as follows:

The steps to copy an angle are as follows;

Draw the initial line, l, (the working line) of the copy of the angle as a ray with an endpoint, DIn the given angle ∠ABC, with the compass placed at point B, construct an arc that intersect the two sides of the given line (BA at point E, and BC at point F) by opening the compass to a radius, rPlace the compass at the point D on the line l and with the radius r from above, draw an arc (D, r) that intersects the line l at the point GPlace the compass at point E on line AB, and construct an arc passing through point F, therefore having radial length EFPlace the compass at point G and construct an arc with radial length EF that intersects the arc (D, r) at point H and draw a ray from the point D passing through point H to complete the construction

A critical step in the copying process involves the finding the distance

between the initial line and the terminal line EF at a given distance DG =

AE from the angle vertex

The step where the error occur is in step 4. by opening the compass

between points A and E which are points on the same line and placing the

compass at point G on line l to draw an arc intersecting the arc created

from point D at H, thereby making the radial distance between the two lines

forming the angle, in the copied angle at a distance E from the vertex,

equal to AE rather than EF

Answer: Adam Smith

A restaurant operator in Accra has found out that during the lockdown,if she sells a plate of her food for Ghc 20 each,she can sell 300 plates but for each Ghc5 she raises the price,10 less plates are sold. A.Draw a table relating 5 different price levels with their corresponding number of plates sold.

B.Use the table to find the slope of the demand

C.Find the equation of the demand fraction.

D.Use your equation to determine the price in Ghc if she sells one plate of food to maximize her revenue

Answers

The demand equation illustrates the price of an item and how it relates to the demand of the item.

The slope of the demand function is -1/2The equation of the demand function is: [tex]R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)[/tex]The price that maximizes her revenue is: Ghc 85

From the question, we have:

[tex]Plates = 300[/tex]

[tex]Price = 20[/tex]

The number of plates (x) decreases by 10, while the price (y) increases by 5. The table of value is:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {300} & {290} & {280} & {270} & {260} \ \\ y & {20} & {25} & {30} & {35} & {40} \ \end{array}[/tex]

The slope (m) is calculated using:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]m = \frac{25-20}{290-300}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{5}{-10}[/tex]

[tex]m = -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The equation of the demand is as follows:

The initial number of plates (300) decreases by 10 is represented as: (300 - 10x).

Similarly, the initial price (20) increases by 5 is represented as: (20 + 5x).

So, the demand equation is:

[tex]R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)[/tex]

Open the brackets to calculate the maximum revenue

[tex]R(x) =6000 + 1500x - 200x - 50x^2[/tex]

[tex]R(x) =6000 + 1300x - 50x^2[/tex]

Equate to 0

[tex]6000 + 1300x - 50x^2 =0[/tex]

Differentiate with respect to x

[tex]1300 - 100x =0[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]100x =1300[/tex]

Divide by 100

[tex]x =13[/tex]

So, the price at maximum revenue is:

[tex]Price= 20 + 5x[/tex]

[tex]Price= 20 + 5 * 13[/tex]

[tex]Price= 85[/tex]

In conclusion:

The slope of the demand function is -1/2The equation of the demand function is: [tex]R(x) = (300 - 10x) \times (20 + 5x)[/tex]The price that maximizes her revenue is: Ghc 85

Calculate the mass of CO, that is in the collection tube. Round your answer to 2 significant digits. {(5,2), (-2,4), (2, -7)}Domain:Range: The mortgage on your new house is $180,000.
