Answer:

58

Step-by-step explanation:

As there are 12 teams in the league and each teams plays every other team twice per season. so, the total number of matches in the league will be 132.

let the matches won by home team = 'x'

given,

number of matches drawn = 34

matches won by the away team = x - 18

Now, according to the question,

⇒ total matches = matches drawn + matches won by home team + matches won by away team

⇒ 132 = 34 + x + x -18

⇒ x = 58

Sanjay bought a basket of oranges, a basket of apples,a basket of mangoes and a basket of peaches.He paid a total of Rs 790 for
Margarita [4]
Let a the price of a basket of oranges be O, that of a basket of apples A, a basket of mangoes M and a basket of peaches P, then
 O + A + M + P = 790   . . . (1)
M - 4 = P + 7 = 3O = A/2 . . . (2)
From (2), we have:
M = P + 11
O = (P + 7)/3
A = 2P + 14

Substituting for M, O and A into (1), gives:
(P + 7)/3 + 2P + 14 + P + 11 + P = 790
P + 7 + 6P + 42 + 3P + 33 + 3P = 2370
13P + 82 = 2370
13P = 2288
P = 176

Therefore, the price of a basket of peaches is Rs176.

The area of a square is stored in a double variable named area. write an expression whose value is length of the diagonal of the
lbvjy [14]

First of all, a bit of theory: since the area of a square is given by

A = s^2

where s is the length of the square. So, if we invert this function we have

s = \sqrt{A}.

Moreover, the diagonal of a square cuts the square in two isosceles right triangles, whose legs are the sides, so the diagonal is the hypothenuse and it can be found by

d = \sqrt{s^2+s^2} = \sqrt{2s^2} = s\sqrt{2}

So, the diagonal is the side length, multiplied by the square root of 2.

With that being said, your function could be something like this:

double diagonalFromArea(double area) {

double side = Math.sqrt(area);

double diagonal = side * Math.sqrt(2);

return diagonal;

}

Expand (2x-3y)^4 using Pascal's Triangle. Show work
deff fn [24]
(2x+3y)⁴
1) let 2x = a   and 3y = b

(a+b)⁴ = a⁴ + a³b + a²b² + ab³ + b⁴
Now let's find the coefficient of each factor using Pascal Triangle
     
                     0     |               1
                     1     |            1    1
                     2     |          1   2   1
                     3     |         1  3   3   1
                     4     |       1  4   6    4  1

0,1,2,3,4,.. represent the exponents of binomials 
Since our binomial has a 4th exponents, the coefficients are respectively:

(1)a⁴ + (4)a³b + (6)a²b² + (4)ab³ + (1)b⁴
Now replace a and b by their real values in (1):

2⁴x⁴ +(4)8x³(3y) + (6)(2²x²)(3²y²) + (4)(2x)(3³y³) + (1)(3⁴)(y⁴)

16x⁴ + 96x³y + 216x²y² + 216xy³ + 81y⁴

Emily invests $5,000 in an
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

50 years

Step-by-step explanation:

use the simple interest formula :

PRT/100

P is the principle (5000)

R is the rate of interest (4)

T is the time taken (x- unknown)

the amount at the end is double the amount invested  = 5000*2 = 10000

(5000*4 * x )/100 = 10000

20000x/100=10000

20000x = 100*10000

20000x = 1 000 000

x= 1 000 000/ 20 000

x = 50

it will take<u> 50 years </u>
