If 30 buses can carry 1,500 people, how many people can 5 buses carry? A 200 © 500 B 250 D 750

maksim [4K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 250 \ people}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup.

$\frac {buses}{people}=\frac {buses}{people}$

We know 30 buses can carry 1,500 people.

$\frac {30 \ buses}{1500 \ people}=\frac {buses}{people}$

We don't know how many people 5 buses can carry, so we say 5 buses carry x people.

$\frac {30 \ buses}{1500 \ people}=\frac {5 \ buses}{x \ people}$

$\frac {30 }{1500 }=\frac {5 }{x }$

Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator of the first fraction by the second fraction's denominator. Then, multiply the first denominator by the second numerator.

$30*x=1500*5\\30x=7500$

Solve for x. It is being multiplied by 30. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 30.

$30x/30=7500\\x=250$

5 buses can carry 250 people.

Explain the steps for dividing decimals. Write three or four sentences.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Move the decimal point in the divisor and dividend.

Turn the divisor (the number you’re dividing by) into a whole number by moving the decimal point all the way to the right. At the same time, move the decimal point in the dividend (the number you’re dividing) the same number of places to the right.

Place a decimal point in the quotient (the answer) directly above where the decimal point now appears in the dividend.

Divide as usual, being careful to line up the quotient properly so that the decimal point falls into place.

Line up each digit in the quotient just over the last digit in the dividend used in that cycle.

Bearing in mind that an absolute value expression is in effect a piece-wise function with two cases, thus

$\bf |-n|=
\begin{cases}
+(-n)\\
-(-n)
\end{cases}\implies 
\begin{cases}
-n\\
n
\end{cases}

n|-n|=2n\implies

n-n=2n\implies 0=2n\implies &0=n\\
