<u><em>However if you are asking how many different combinations, there can be 5005 different combinations.</em></u>

Answer:

<u><em>2 different groups of 6 children.</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>There are 15 children </em></u><u><em>you need to bring. </em></u><u><em>You can fit 6 children in each van.</em></u>

<u><em>One van : 6 children</em></u>

<u><em>Two vans : 12 children</em></u>

<u><em>Three vans : 18 children</em></u>

<u><em>If you take </em></u><u><em>two vans, that will take 12 children</em></u><u><em>. But you need to fit 15.</em></u>

<u><em>If you take </em></u><u><em>three vans, that will take 18 children.</em></u><u><em> This is more than enough.</em></u>

<u><em>15 children - 6 = 9 children</em></u>

<u><em>Thats one group with 9 children left to take</em></u>

<u><em>9 children - 6 = 3 children</em></u>

<u><em>Thats two groups with 3 children left to take</em></u>

<u><em>3 children - 6 = -3.</em></u>

<u><em>This doesn't work. In this case, </em></u><u><em>there will be 3 more empty seats in the last group.</em></u>

<u><em>Since the question asks how many groups of </em></u><u><em>6 </em></u><u><em>children you can drive. It would be </em></u><u><em>two. </em></u><u><em>Becuase </em></u><u><em>there are 2 groups of 6 and one of 3</em></u><u><em>.</em></u>

A group of 31 friends gets together to play a sport. First, people
Umnica [9.8K]

The number of teams she can make is 10.

<h3>How many teams can she make?</h3>

Division is the process of putting a number into equal groups using another number. The sign used to denote division is ÷. Division is one of the basic mathematical operations. Other basic mathematical operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication.

The number of teams that can be made can be determined by dividing the total number of friends by the total number of players in each team. The whole number that is derived from the division process is the number of teams teams that can be made given the total number of friends and the number of people that have to be in each group.

Number of teams she can make = total number of friends / number of people in each group

31 / 3 = 10 remainder 1

So, only 10 teams can be made. one person would not be on any team.

Which formula gives the x-coordinates of the maximum values for y = cos(x)?
solong [7]

We have been given a function y=\cos(x). We are asked to find the formula which gives the x-coordinates of the maximum values for given function.

We know that cosine function oscillates between -1 and 1 that is minimum value of cosine is -1 and maximum value is 1.

We also know that \cos(0)=1 and after period of cosine is 2\pi. This means after every 2\pi, we will get to 1.

So maximum of cosine is 2\pi n, where n is an integer.

Therefore, our required formula is 2\pi n, where, n=0,\pm 1,\pm 2,\pm3,...

The length of the base of a triangle is twice its height. If the area of the triangle is 64 square​ kilometers, find the height.
frez [133]
Area of a triangle = base x height / 2
64 = base x height / 2
(multiply 2 on both sides)
128 = base x height 
then if base= 16 and height = 8 then 16 x 8 = 128
thus the base is 16 which is twice the height:8
