Answer:
232 cars
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the number of cars that entered is c.
At 9:00 am, there are a total of 24 + c cars and 64 trucks. We know that this value of 64 represents 1/5 of the total number of vehicles. The total number of vehicles is (24 + c) + 64 = 88 + c. So, we have:
64/(88 + c) = 1/5
Cross-multiply:
88 + c = 64 * 5 = 320
c = 320 - 88 = 232
Thus, the answer is 232 cars.

Answer:
- 11 or - 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Factorise
x² - 13x + 42
Consider the factors of the constant term (+ 42) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 13)
The factors are - 6 and - 7, since
- 6 × - 7 = + 42 and - 6 - 7 = - 13, thus
x² - 13x + 42 = (x - 6)(x - 7)
compare to (x + A)(x + B)
A = - 6, B = - 7
thus 3A - B = 3(- 6) - (- 7) = - 18 + 7 = - 11
The factors may also be expressed as (x - 7)(x - 6)
with A = - 7 and B = - 6, then
3A - B = 3(- 7) - (- 6) = - 21 + 6 = - 15
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Y) 
= 3
*multiply both sides by 8 - cancels out 8 in denominator*
x + 4 = 24
*subtract 4 from both sides*
x = 20
E) 
= 1
*multiply both sides by 2 - cancels out 2 in denominator*
x - 5 = 2
*add 5 on both sides*
x = 7
N) 
= 2
* multiply both sides by 4 - cancels out 4 in denominator*
x + 2 = 8
*subtract 2 from both sides*
x = 6
