Answer:

780 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of students be "x"

We know 35% of these students take the bus, which is 273 students

So, the problem basically becomes:

35% of x is 273

We need to convert this word equation to algebraic equation. Remember,

"of" means "multiplication"

and

"is" means "equals to"

So, we can write:

35% * x = 273

To solve this for x, first we need to convert percentage to decimal by dividing by 100, so we have:

35% = 35/100 = 0.35

Now, we have:

0.35*x = 273\\0.35x=273

We solve for x:

0.35x=273\\x=\frac{273}{0.35}\\x=780

The total number of students at Jones High School = 780

Pavlova-9 [17]
Answer: The lendor will allow for $1500 for the housing expenses.

This lendor is allowing 30% for the debt. So, we start by multiplying 8000 times 0.3 which equals 2400.

However, we have to subtract the current debts of 900.
2400 - 900 = 1500

The center of the inscribed circle of Triangle ABC is point , and the center of the circumscribed circle of Triagnle ABC is poin
quester [9]

Answer:

Part A: The center of The inscribed circle is the point S

Part B: The center of The circumscribed circle is the point P

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Find the center of The inscribed circle of ΔABC

The inscribed circle will touch each of the three sides of the triangle in exactly one point,

The center of the inscribed circle is the point of intersection between the angle bisectors of the triangle.

<u>So, </u>According to the previous definition:

A₁A₂ and B₁B₂ are the angle bisectors of ∠A and ∠B

So, the inter section between them is the center of <u>The inscribed circle</u>

<u>So, the center of The inscribed circle is the point S</u>

=====================================================

Part B: Find the center of The circumscribed circle of ΔABC

The circumscribed circle is the circle that passes through all three vertices of the triangle.

The center of the circumscribed circle is the point of intersection between the perpendicular bisectors of the sides.

<u>So,</u> According to the previous definition:

P₁P₂ and Q₁Q₂ are the perpendicular bisectors of AB and BC

So, the inter section between them is the center of <u>The circumscribed circle</u>

<u>So, the center of The circumscribed circle is the point P</u>
