Mrs.Traynor's class is taking a field trip to the zoo. The trip will cost $26 for each student. There are 22 students in her cla

ss.
I need to round each factor to estimate the total cost of the students' field trip. How though?

Also, i need to use compatible numbers to estimate the total cost of the trip. Then state what i think is the better estimate.

Well, estimate means to get like a general idea, or "in the ball park".
The factors include; the trip which is $26, and the ammount of students in the class, which is 22.
In order to estimate, you need to round.
$26 rounded becomes $30.
22 rounded becomes 20.
So now that we have the rounded numbers, we solve the problem. In order to find the total cost for all the students, we multiply the amount of students, by the ammount of money it costs per student.
The estimated version of this is: 20x30=600
This means that the estimated answer is $600 total.
Now do the same thing with the actual numbers.
22x26=572.
This means that the actual answer is $572.
The roumded total
Answer is $600.
You can say it is better use the actual numbers, and not estimate, because it is the actual answer.
I hope this helps you, im sorry for the long answer :)

Please help! 25 points!<br> Write the equation of a line with slope 3/2 and Y-Intercept -2.
Juli2301 [7.4K]
Hello there!

For this question, we can use slope-intercept form of a line. The following equation is the format for slope-intercept form:
y=mx+b

In this equation, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. The slope and y-intercept is given. Thus, we just "plug in" the given values into the equation to get our answer. Replace "m" with "3/2" and replace "b" with "-2". After doing so, you get the following equation for the line.

y= \frac{3}{2} x-2

That should be your answer. Hope this helps! :)

What is x and y if you have 4x-2y=5 and y=2x+10
jonny [76]

\bf \begin{cases} 4x-2y=5\\ \boxed{y}=2x+10 \end{cases}~\hspace{7em}\stackrel{\textit{substituting \boxed{y} in the 1st equation}}{4x-2\left( \boxed{2x+10} \right)=5} \\\\\\ 4x-4x-20=5\implies -20\ne 5


which makes no sense, our variable went poof, but that is a flag that this system has no solution, let's quickly solve both for "y" to put them in slope-intercept form,


\bf 4x-2y=5\implies 4x-5=2y\implies \cfrac{4x-5}{2}=y\implies ~\hfill \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{2}x-\cfrac{5}{2}=y \\\\\\ ~\hfill y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{2}x+10


so, notice, the slopes(m) are exactly the same for both, whilst the y-intercept differs, meaning both lines are parallel and therefore never touch each other, thus, no solution.

the untrue equation of -20 = 5, is another way to say, "no solution".
