X is the seats in the small van.

y is the seats in the large van = (x + 6). Since the large has 6 more seats.

Since the 2 vans can transport 57 people.

Small van makes 2 trips = 2x.

Large van makes one trip = (x + 6).

2x + (x +6) = 57

2x + x + 6 = 57

3x + 6 = 57

3x = 57 -6

3x = 51

x = 51/3

x = 17.

The larger van has (x + 6) = (17 + 6) = 23.

The larger van has 23 seats.

Y - x = 6
y + 2x = 57 

2y - 2x =12
y + 2x = 57 

∴3y = 69
   y = 23
 

23 - x = 6 
-x = -17 
x =17

large van = 23
small van = 17

Help i need help with this 10x+16>6x+20
Mamont248 [21]

What does > mean?

10x + 16 ≥ 6x + 20

Subtract both sides by 16

10x ≥ 6x + 4

Subtract both sides by 6x

4x ≥ 4

Divide both sides by 4

x ≥ 1

I believe this is your answer good luck!!

In a randomly selected sample of 1169 men ages 35–44, the mean total cholesterol level was 210 milligrams per deciliter with a s
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10% is 160.59 milligrams per deciliter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 210, \sigma = 38.6

Find the highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10%.

This is the 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So X when Z = -1.28.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

-1.28 = \frac{X - 210}{38.6}

X - 210 = -1.28*38.6

X = 160.59

The highest total cholesterol level a man in this 35–44 age group can have and be in the lowest 10% is 160.59 milligrams per deciliter.
