Answer:
9 teams
Step-by-step explanation:
If the total games played was 36 and no team played each other twice, we need to ensure there isn't any double counting.
36 = (n-1) + (n-2) + (n-3) ... + (n-(n-1))
using this knowledge, we can then count up:
1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8 = 36
If our highest number is 8, then we know there must be 9 teams, because no team can play themselves.
Answer:
48
Step-by-step explanation:
0.8 times 60= 48
Answer: 2/3
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we have 8/15 ÷ 4/5. Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the division sign to multiplication and flip the second fraction.
8/15 ÷ 4/5 can be rewritten as 8/15 × 5/4
Now, we are simply multiplying fractions so we multiply across the numerators and multiply across the denominators.
8/15 × 5/4 = 40/60 = 2/3
Think of sqrt(2) as a variable.
3x - x = 2x
If x = sqrt(2), then answer is 2sqrt(2)
