- you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
- Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.
<h3>How many buses would it take to carry only the boys?</h3>
We know that there are (3 + 1/2) groups, such that each group fill one bus.
2/5 of the students are boys, then the number of groups that we can make only with boys is:
(2/5)*(3 + 1/2) = 6/5 + 1/5 = 7/5 = 5/5 + 2/5 = 1 + 2/5
Then you can make one and a little less than a half of a group, which means that you need 1 and 2/5 of a buss to transport the boys, rounding that to the a whole number, you will need 2 busses to only transport the boys.
<h3>How far is Mark from his house?</h3>
The original distance is:
D = (2 + 3/4) miles.
But Mark only covers 2/3 of that distance, then we have:
d = (2/3)*D = (2/3)*(2 + 3/4) miles = (4/3 + 2/4) miles
d = (4/3 + 1/2) miles = (8/6 + 3/6) miles = (1 + 5/6) miles
Mark is at (1 + 5/6) miles of his house.

Y= 5 y =7 thats the smaller slip and larger
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given system:</u>
- 2x - y = - 2
- 15x - 2y = - 7
<u>Solve by elimination, multiply the first equation by - 2 and add up the equations:</u>
- -2(2x - y) + 15x - 2y = - 2(- 2) - 7
- -4x + 2y + 15x - 2y = 4 - 7
- 11x = - 3
- x = - 3/11
<u>Find the value of y:</u>
- 2( - 3/11) - y = - 2
- -6/11 - y = - 2
- y = 2 - 6/11
- y = 1/11
<u>Solution is:</u>
- <em>None of the answer choices is matching this solution. Something must be wrong with the given equations.</em>
Answer:
4/5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.35 + 0.2 + 0.25 = 0.80
In a triangle, the side opposite the largest angle is the longest one. So the answer is 8 inches.
