Each coach has 50 seats and there are 1030 supporters. How many coaches are needed to take all the supporters?

1 answer:

6 0

The answer would be to divide 1030 by 50 and you would get 21 coaches not 20 because 50x20=1000 and there are 30 remainder. Therefor, you would need that extra coach with some seats left to spare. so your answer is 21 coaches

To Find :

How many gallons of a 80% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 100 gallons of 20% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 70% antifreeze.

Solution :

Let, x gallons of 80% antifreeze solution is required :

So,

$(x \times 80) + ( 100 \times 20 ) = (x + 100 )\times 70\\\\8x + 200 = 7( x + 100)\\\\x = 500$

Therefore, 500 gallons of 80% antifreeze solution is required.

Lupe can ride her bike at a rate of 20 mph when there is no wind. On one particular day, she rode 2 miles against the wind and n

lana [24]

Let wind speed = x mph

when she rode 2 miles against the wind we have:-
speed = distance / time so
20 - x = 2 / t -------(1) where t is the time she took.

when riding with the wind we have

20 + x = 3 / t--------(2) adding equations (1) and (2):-

40 = 2/t + 3/t
40 = 5/t
t = 5/40 = 1/8 hr

x = 20 - 2 / 1/8 = 20 - 16 = 4

Wind speed was 4 mph Answer
