-1 points, because probality is that he will get 1 correct, giving him 5 points, but he will probably get 3 wrong, taking away 6 points. 5-6 equals -1

New York City is a popular field trip destination. This year the senior class at High School A and the senior class at High Scho
Maslowich

Answer: There are 16 vans and 36 buses and Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

For high school A,

Number of vans = 5

Number of buses = 3

Number of students = 188

For high school B,

Number of vans = 10

Number of buses = 5

Number of students = 340

So, Let the number of students in van be 'x'

Let the number of students in bus be 'y'.

According to question, it becomes;

5x+3y=188-----------------(1)\\\\10x+5y=340-------------------(2)

So, first we do:

2(5x+3y=188)

10x+6y=376----------------(3)

So, from (2) and (3), we get that

10x+6y=376\\\\10x+5y=340\\\\------------------------------\\\\y=36

so, put the value of y = 36 in the eq(1), we get that

5x+3\times 36=188\\\\5x+108=188\\\\5x=188-108\\\\5x=80\\\\x=16

Hence, there are 16 vans and 36 buses and Option 'c' is correct.

Hi, so I was wondering if anyone knows the surface area of a cylinder if the diameter is 7.5? Thank you so much! :)
disa [49]

Answer:

206.17

Key(s):

A = 2\pi \frac{d}{2} h + 2\pi \left(\frac{d}{2}\right)^2

Substitute <em>d</em> for the actual diameter, 7.5, and <em>h</em> for the height, which is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 2\cdot\pi \cdot\frac{7.5}{2} \cdot5 + 2\cdot\pi \cdot\left(\frac{7.5}{2}\right)^2 ≈ 206.17(2 DP)

On a map 0.75 inch represents 80 miles. Two cities that are 1025 miles apart will be how far apart on a map round to nearest ten
icang [17]

The cities are 9.6 inches apart on map.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

80 miles in actual = 0.75 inch

1 mile = \frac{0.75}{80}\ inch

Distance between two cities = 1025 miles

1025 miles on map = 1025*\frac{0.75}{80}\\

1025\ miles\ on\ map=\frac{768.75}{80}\\\\1025\ miles\ on\ map=9.6\ inches

The cities are 9.6 inches apart on map.

Explain why you might want to write very large and very small numbers like the ones in the example problem in scientific notatio
slava [35]

Answer:

Extremely large and small numbers that have many zeros are long to write and take up a lot of room. So, by using scientific notation a number can be written shorter. For example, numbers such as 295,000,000,000 can be shortened to 2.95x10^{11}. This is easier to write and understand. This is why the scientific notation is used over standard.
