Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 460 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the information given in the question, let the total number of students that attend I.S. 59 be represented by x.
Since we've been given the information that 230 signed up for the school picnic which was 50% of all students in the school. Then, the students in the school will be:
= 50% of x = 230
0.5 × x = 230
0.5x = 230
x = 230/0.5
x = 460
Therefore, 460 students attend the school.

Answer:
(b) 23
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a rectangle are the same length, so ...
AC = BD
2x +10 = 56
x +5 = 28 . . . . . divide by 2
x = 23 . . . . . . . . subtract 5
Answer: the trip (one-way) that Alan made on Saturday was 63 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the distance of the trip that Alan made on Saturday.
Let t represent the time that it took Alan to make the trip on Saturday.
On Saturday, Alan traveled North along minor roads averaging 36 mph to visit a friend.
Distance = speed × time.
Therefore, distance travelled on Saturday would be
x = 36 × t = 36t
On Sunday, he traveled East along main roads averaging 60 mph to visit his mother. The trip to visit his mother was 24 miles longer and took 18 minutes(18/60 = 0.3 hours) less. This means that the distance travelled would be
x + 24 and the time spent would be t - 0.3 hours.
Distance travelled on Sunday would be
x + 24 = 60(t - 0.3)
x + 24 = 60t - 18 - - - - - - -- - - 1
Substituting x = 36t into equation 1, it becomes
36t + 24 = 60t - 18
60t - 36t = 24 + 18
24t = 42
t = 42/24 = 1.75
x = 36t = 36 × 1.75
x = 63 miles
