Answer: 2 buses and 4 vans would be needed
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of buses that would be needed.
Let y represent the number of vans that would be needed.
There will be six drivers, and two different types of vehicles. This means that
x + y = 6
142 students are going on a field trip. A bus can hold 51 people while a van can hold 10. This means that
51x + 10y = 142 - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 6 - y into equation 1, it becomes
51(6 - y) + 10y = 142
306 - 51y + 10y = 142
- 51y + 10y = 142 - 306
- 41y = - 164
y = - 164/ - 41
y = 4
x = 6 - y = 6 - 4
x = 2
Answer:
1. a) population of the town in 2024 = 8697
2.) the earthquake with a magnitude of 8 is a <u>100 times stronger</u> than an earthquake with a magnitude of 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) the population of a town was,
in 2016.
a) Exponential growth model is given by
where t is the time in years after 2016.
Year 2016 is when t = 0.
k = growth rate constant = 1.6% = 0.016
i) therefore the population of the town in 2024
=
( to the nearest whole number)
2.) log (I
M
S) = magnitude of earthquake where I is the Intensity of the earthquake and S is the intensity of a standard earthquake
therefore I
M
S = 
therefore 
Answer:
.03
Step-by-step explanation:
.03 would be 3% where all the others are 30% hope this helped!
Answer:
6 3/8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
let 'x' = distance in 1 hr, 25 minutes (which is 85 minutes)
(3/8 ÷ 5) = x ÷ 85
cross-multiply:
5x = 255/8
40x = 255
x = 6 3/8
