There are 50 athletes signed up for a neighborhood basketball competition. Players can select to play in the 6-player games ("3 on 3") or the 2-player games ("1 on 1"). All 50 athletes sign up for only one kind of game. Complete the table to show different combinations of games that could be played. What should replace A?

answer:

1.14285714286

step-by-step explanation:

divide 40 into 35 and you will get your answer

x^2 + 10x + 38 + 161/x-4

to find this, you'll need to synthetically divide using synthetic division.

here's how you would set it up:

4 is what you're dividing by (set x -4 = 0)

the numbers you are 'dividing' by are 1, 6, -2, and 9 or the coefficients of the terms listed above.

bring the first term down (1), multiply that by 4 before raising it to the next term to add (6). repeat this process as so:

6 + 4 = 10; 10 x 4 = 40; 40 - 2 = 38 x 4 = 152 + 9 = 161

161 is over x-4 as there are now two constants and you cannot combine them.

also, i'm not sure if it was -9 or +9, so i assumed.

hope this !
