So 51+51=102 and then 10+10+10+10=40, and 102+40=142. So they will need to take 2 buses and 4 vans.

Answer:  The answer is 2 buses and 4 vans.


Step-by-step explanation:  Let 'b' be the number of buses and 'v' be the number of vans that will be needed.

The trip will use 6 drivers, and we need one driver for each vehicle, so number of drivers is equal to the number of vehicles used.i.e.,

b+v=6.

Now, number of passengers in buses is 51b and number of passengers in vans is 10v. Since there are total 142 people, so

51b+10v=142.

Substituting the value of 'v' from forst equation in the second equation, we have

51b+10(6-b)=142\\\\\Rightarrow 51b+60-10b=142\\\\\Rightarrow 41b=82\\\\\Rightarrow b=2.

Again, from the first equation, we get

v=6-2=4.

Thus, there are 2 buses and 4 vans in the trip.

The Lee family buys a new car that has a sales price of $35,000. If the car dealer requires a minimum down payment of 15%, what
Ivanshal [37]
<h2><u><em>PLEASE MARK ME BRAINLIEST!!!!!</em></u></h2>

Answer:

$5,250

Step-by-step explanation:

The less must pay a minimum down payment that is equivalent to 15% the sales price of the new car.

Given that the price of the new car is $35,000, the product of 15% with this amount will equal the down payment.

As such, the down payment

= 15% * $35,000

= 0.15 * $35,000

= $5,250

PLZ HELP!!! Use limits to evaluate the integral.
Marrrta [24]

Split up the interval [0, 2] into <em>n</em> equally spaced subintervals:

\left[0,\dfrac2n\right],\left[\dfrac2n,\dfrac4n\right],\left[\dfrac4n,\dfrac6n\right],\ldots,\left[\dfrac{2(n-1)}n,2\right]

Let's use the right endpoints as our sampling points; they are given by the arithmetic sequence,

r_i=\dfrac{2i}n

where 1\le i\le n. Each interval has length \Delta x_i=\frac{2-0}n=\frac2n.

At these sampling points, the function takes on values of

f(r_i)=7{r_i}^3=7\left(\dfrac{2i}n\right)^3=\dfrac{56i^3}{n^3}

We approximate the integral with the Riemann sum:

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^nf(r_i)\Delta x_i=\frac{112}n\sum_{i=1}^ni^3

Recall that

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^ni^3=\frac{n^2(n+1)^2}4

so that the sum reduces to

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^nf(r_i)\Delta x_i=\frac{28n^2(n+1)^2}{n^4}

Take the limit as <em>n</em> approaches infinity, and the Riemann sum converges to the value of the integral:

\displaystyle\int_0^27x^3\,\mathrm dx=\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{28n^2(n+1)^2}{n^4}=\boxed{28}

Just to check:

\displaystyle\int_0^27x^3\,\mathrm dx=\frac{7x^4}4\bigg|_0^2=\frac{7\cdot2^4}4=28
