Answer:

7 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of cars to be filled is shown below:

A car that is 90% full and the total people is 20 so 90% would be

= (.90)(20)

= 18

A car that is 65% full and the total people is 20 so 65% would be

= (.65)(20)

= 13

Now

Total number of people = (5)(18) + (3)(13).

= 129

Now the number of cars to be filled is

= 129 ÷ 20

= 6.45

= 7 cars

the diagonal of a rectangle is 16 inches. if the height of the rectangle is 8 inches. what is the length of the rectangle?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Length: 13.9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a = 8 and c= 16

8^2 + b^2 = 16^2

64 + b^2 = 256

b^2 = 256 - 64

b = sqrt 192

b = 13.9

The sum of two numbers is 95. If the larger is increased by twice the smaller, the result is 120. Find the numbers.
adelina 88 [10]
Hello!

You can make two expressions based on what you know

let x equal the larger number
let y equal the smaller number

x + y = 95
x + 2y = 120

We can use elimination to get rid of x

You can subtract the two equation to get rid of x

-y = -25

Since y is negative we can multiply both sides by -1 to make y positive

y = 25

Now we can put this into one of the other equations to find x

x + 25 = 95

subtract 95 from both sides

x = 70

The answers are 70 and 25

Hope this helps!
