9 buses.
Explanation:
We divide the number of basketball fans by the number of fans that can be accommodated by the bus. We get 8.4
Since we cannot cut the bus into 0.4 we add another bus so that everyone will get to go.
Another method is
Multiply 8 buses by 34 fans. We get 272 fans will be able to go to a game.
This means that some fans will be left by the bus but our goal is to have everyone go.
And thus we need the 9th bus to carry the remaining 15 fans

Find the center of the circle: x2 + 2x - 3 + y2 = 5.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

\boxed{(-1, 0)}

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 2x - 3 + y²  = 5

Strategy:

Convert the equation to the centre-radius form:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

The centre of the circle is at (h, k) and the radius is r .

Solution:

Move the number to the right-hand side.

x² + 2x + y²  = 8

Complete the square for x

(Take half the coefficient of x, square it, and add to each side of the equation)

(x² + 2x + 1) + y² = 9

Complete the square for y

The coefficient of y is zero.

(x² + 2x + 1) + y² = 9

Express the result as the sum of squares

(x + 1)² + y² = 3²

h = -1; k = 0; r = 3

The centre of the circle is at \boxed{(-1,0)}

The graph of the circle below has its centre at (-1,0) and radius 3.

You and your friend live 12 miles apart. you leave home at the same time and travel ttoward eacth other.you walk at the rate of
mr Goodwill [35]

Step 1: Assign variable for the unknown that  you need to find.

d_w \; \rightarrow \; Distance \; you \; traveled \; by \; walk \; in \; miles \\ d_c \; \rightarrow \; Distance \; traveled \; by \; your \; friend \; using \; bicycle \; in \; miles  \\ t \; \rightarrow \; Time \; Taken \; in \; hours

Step 2: List the given details

Distance between you and your friend is 12 miles. It means the total distance traveled by you by walk and your friend using bicycle when both travel towards each other to meet in 't' hours

Equation 1:

d_w+d_c=12

Your Walking rate and your friends Cycling rate is given below:

r_w=4mph\\r_c=11mph

Step 3: Set up an equation using the relationship between distance, time and rate.

Distance=Rate \times Time

d_w=r_w \times t=4t \\\\ d_c = r_c \times t = 11t

Substituting the above in equation 1

4t+11t=12 \\ Combining \; Like \; Terms \\\\ 15t=12 \\ Dividing \; 15 \; on \; both \; sides \\\\ 15t \div 15=12 \div 15 \\\\ t=0.8 hours

Distance traveled by you by walking from home and distance travelled by your friend in cycle in 0.8 hours is given below:

d_w=4t=4(0.8)=3.2miles \\\\ d_c=11t=11(0.8)=8.8miles

Grains of sand are very small, there being about 3000 grains in one cubic centimeter (cm3) of sand. A cm3 is a small cube measur
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The value is x =  3.000 * 10^9 \  grains

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

      1m^3 = 10^6 cm^3

And that

     3000 \  grains \ of \  sand  \  is  \ in \  1cm^3

So the number of sand grain that is in 1m^3 is mathematically evaluated as

      x =  3000 * 10^6 \  grains

=>  x =  3.000 * 10^9 \  grains
