There are 14 teams in a basketball league. Each team plays every other team twice
during the season.
a) Suppose that you want to determine
how many games, in total, are played.
Suggest a simpler problem that you
could solve first.
b) How many games, in total, are played
during the season?

Step-by-step explanation:210 games

14+13+12... (x2)

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1

24 units
