Answer:

5832 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the circle has 8 sectors and there is 4 colour,

Assuming the sectors are numbered 1 to 8,

Sector 1 : can be coloured with any of the 4 colour in 4 ways

Sector 2 can be coloured with any of the remaining 3 colours in 3 ways

Sector 3 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 2

Sector 4 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 3

Sector 5 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 4

Sector 6 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 5

Sector 7 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 6

Sector 8 in 2 ways without using the colours in sector 1 and 7

Number of ways of colouring = 4*3*3*3*3*3*3*2 = 5832 ways

Answer: B (the lower one)

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's solve for y.

x + 2y = 4

2y = -x + 4

y = -1/2x + 2

It is B since the y intercept for that graph is 2.

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.
