40. Sixty-four teams have entered a slow pitch baseball tournament. A team is eliminated
after one loss. How many games must be
played to determine a winner?

Step-by-step explanation:

You are starting with 64 teams.  The first round of games would a total of 32 games since each teams plays each other.  There would be 32 winners.

The second round would start with 32 teams which would require 16 games and would result in 16 winning teams.

The third round would start with 16 teams which would require 8 games and would result in 8 winning teams.

The fourth round would start with 8 teams which would require 4 games and would result in 4 winning teams.

The fifth round would start with 4 teams which would require 2 games and would result in 2 winning teams.

The sixth and final round would start with 2 teams with just 1 game and 1 winning team.

So if the question was looking for the total number of games, the answer would be 32+16+8+4+2+1 = 63

If the question was looking for the number of games the winning team would have to play to win the tournament, the answer would be 6.  The team would play 1 game in each round and must win every time.

$450 is the answer.
