According to the question statement, the total sum of students is 221, which includes the students that ride on bus and the students that ride in a van.
The students that ride in a van are five, the students that ride on bus are 6 times s which is the product of the number of buses and the number of students that are on each bus.
Write all this information into an equation, this way:

Now, solve the equation for s to find the number of students that are on each bus.

There are 36 students on each bus.
Answer:
The inequality represented by the graph is y >
x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The form of the linear equation is y = m x + b, where
- m is the slope of the line
The rule of the slope is m =
, where
- (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the line
<em>To find the inequality represented by the graph, find at first the equation of the line</em>
∵ The line passes through points (0, -3) and (3, -2)
∴ x1 = 0 and y1 = -3
∴ x2 = 3 and y2 = -2
→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope above to find it
∵ m =
=
= 
∴ m = 
→ Substitute it in the form of the equation above
∴ y =
x + b
∵ b is the y-intercept ⇒ value y at x = 0
∵ y = -3 at x = 0
∴ b = -3
→ Substitute it in the equation
∴ y =
x + -3
∴ y =
x - 3
→ Let us change it to inequality
∵ The line is dashed
∵ The shading area is above the line
∴ The sign of inequality should be >
∴ y >
x - 3
∴ The inequality represented by the graph is y >
x - 3
if volume, length and height is known
the formula is rewritten as:
w = v/lh
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 2 is a vertical line; all values of y are possible.
y ≤ -3 is a region which includes -3 and all numbers less than -3.
So: draw a light line x = 2. Then draw a dark line at y = -3. Now darken the line x = 2 for (-infinity, -3].
