Let x be the<u> number of buses</u> and y be the <u>number of vans</u> needed to transport 107 people.

1. If each bus can seat 31 people and 3 of them should be teachers, then x buses can seat (31-3)x=28x students. If each van can seat 9 people and 1 of them should be teacher, then y vans can seat (9-1)y=8y students.

2. Grant Valley School has hired a fleet of buses and vans to transport 96 students to a picnic.Thus,

28x+8y=96.

3. It will take to accommodate 107 people, including the 96 students and teachers, then the number of teachers is 107-96=11.

x buses will take 3x teachers and y vans will take y teachers,

Therefore, 3x+y=11.

4. Solve the system of equations:

\left\{\begin{array}{l}28x+8y=96\\3x+y=11\end{array}\right.\Rightarrow \left\{\begin{array}{l}28x+8(11-3x)=96\\y=11-3x\end{array}\right..

Solve the first equation:

28x+88-24x=96,\\ \\4x=8,\\ \\x=2.

Then y=11-3x=11-6=5.

Answer: 2 buses and 5 vans

Answer:

On the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

Because all of the points on a circle are equidistant from the center, if a circle has a radius of 10 then all of the points are 10 units from the center. Using the Pythagorean Theorem, you know that the distance from (4,0) to (-2,8) is:

\sqrt{(4-(-2))^2+(8-0)^2}=\sqrt{6^2+8^2}=\sqrt{36+64}=\sqrt{100}=10, meaning that it is on the circle. Hope this helps!

Answer:

1. 18.84 in

2. 56.52 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle. Its found using the formula C = πd or C=2πr. The variable d represents the diameter or the distance from one edge of the circle to the other through the cent. The variable r represents the radius of a circle or the distance from one edge to the center. Use the formula by substituting a diameter or radius then simplify.

1. C = πd = π(6) = 3.14(6) = 18.84 in

2. C = 2πr = 2(3.14)(9) = 56.52 cm
