Question

If G is the number of seconds that a traffic light says green and n is the average number of cars in each lane per light cycle, then the relationship would be G= 2.1n + 3.7
if the light stays green for 70 seconds then how many cars can cross the intersection in one cycle?
(linear equations)

Answer 1

Answer:

31.57 cars is the answer rounded to the hundredth, but since its cars you might want to put just 31 since half a car cant pass through. it depends on what your teacher wants really.

Step-by-step explanation:

70=2.1n+3.7

70-3.7=2.1n

66.3=2.1n

66.3/2.1=n

31.57=n
