The number of players the team can bring to the tournament is 12

What is algebraic expression?

The appropriate algebraic expression in this case is the one that considers the cost of renting the bus of $1075.50 as well as the budgeted meal cost for all players that played in the softball team.

In other words, there is fixed charge which is the rent and meal costs which increase as the number of players increases

TC=a+bX

TC=total amount raised for the tournament=$1525.50

a=cost of renting the bus= $1075.50

bX=cost per meal per player*number of players=$37.50*X

$1525.50=$1075.50+$37.50*X

$1525.50-$1075.50=$37.50*X

$450.00=$37.50*X

X=$450.00/$37.50

X=12 players

The team can only bring a team of 12 players to the tournament.

Each tile is 3/2 feet by 3/2 feet. There are 10 tiles on the bathroom floor.
Yuki888 [10]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  22.5 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The area covered by one tile is the product of its dimensions:

  A = lw

  A = (3/2 ft)(3/2 ft) = 9/4 ft²

The area covered by 10 tiles is 10 times the area covered by one tile. The area covered is ...

  covered by tiles = 10 × 9/4 ft² = 90/4 ft²

  covered by tiles = 22.5 ft²

22 1/2 square feet is the area covered by tiles.

A pole-vaulter uses a 15-foot-long pile. She grips the pole so that the segment below her left hand is twice the length of the s
Shalnov [3]
Let x + 1.5 be length of segment above left hand
Let 2x be length of segment below left hand

15 = x + 1.5 + 2x
15 = 3x + 1.5
15 - 1.5 = 3x
13.5 = 3x
13.5/3= 3x/3 
4.5 = x
x = 4.5
This is the length above the left hand. 

2x must be then 4.5*2 = 9 foot
This is the length below the left hand. 

Checking
4.5 + 9 + 1.5 = 15 foot 

Adding length below left hand & length of left hand to right hand:
9 + 1.5 = 10.5
The right hand is hence 10.5 foot far up the pole.
