A group of college students are going to a lake house for the weekend and plan on renting small cars and large cars to make the

trip. Each small car can hold 4 people and each large car can hold 6 people. The students rented 4 times as many large cars as small cars, which altogether can hold 56 people. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

4x+6y=56 and y=4x can be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented, where x represents number of small cars and y represents number of large cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of people hold by small cars = 4

Number of people hold by large cars = 6

Let,

Number of small cars = x

Number of large cars = y

The students rented 4 times as many large cars as small cars,

y = 4x    Eqn 1

which altogether can hold 56 people.

4x+6y=56   Eqn 2

4x+6y=56 and y=4x can be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented, where x represents number of small cars and y represents number of large cars.

The radiuses of two intersecting circles are 17 and 39. The distance between their centers is 44. Find the length of their commo
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

If x is the distance from centre fo the circle, with radius 25cm, to its intersection point with the common chord, x²+24²=25² =>x=7cm.

Distance from this intersecting point to the centre of the other circle=39–7=32cm

Ratio of the sides of the right triangle thus formed is 24:32=3:4. Since 3:4:5 is the basic pythagorean triplet, the radius of the other circle=5*24/3=40cm.

Aliter: radius of the other circle=√32²+24²= 40cm.

Factor the expression 8x^3y-8x^2y-30xy
miv72 [106K]

Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF)

GCF = 2xy

Factor out the GCF. (Write the GCF first. Then, in parentheses, divide each term by the GCF.)

2xy(8x^3y/2xy + -8x^2y/2xy + -30xy/2xy)

Simplify each term in parenthesis

2xy(4x^2 - 4x - 15)

Split the second term in 4x^2 - 4x - 15 into two terms

2xy(4x^2 + 6x - 10x - 15)

Factor out common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms;

2xy(2x(2x + 3) -5(2x + 3))

Factor out the common term 2x + 3

<u>= 2xy(2x + 3)(2x - 5)</u>
