Answer:
The number of students in the school band = 70
40% of students in the school band are sixth graders.
20% of students in the school band are seventh graders.
We have to find the number of band members that are sixth graders.
The number of sixth graders in school band are:



Therefore, there are 28 band members that are sixth graders.
Answer:
131.3 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The two cars are moving from different directions. The total distance between the two cars = 118 miles + 256 miles = 374 miles.
Let us assume that the two cars meet at point O, let the distance between car c and O be d₁, the distance between car d and point O be d₂, hence:
d₁ + d₂ = 374 miles (1)
Let speed of car d be x mph, therefore speed of car c = 2x mph (twice of car d). If it take the cars t hours to meet at the same point, hence
For car c:
2x = d₁/t
t = d₁ / 2x
For car d;
x = d₂/t
t = d₂/ x
Since it takes both cars the same time to meet at the same point, therefore:
d₁/2x = d₂ / x
d₁ = 2d₂
d₁ - 2d₂ = 0 (2)
Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives d₁ = 249.3 miles, d₂ = 124.7 miles
Therefore the distance from point of meet to Boston = 249.3 - 118 = 131.3 miles
The slope would be 2. Rise over run remember that.
Answer:
y=-3x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
plug in point into x and y, replace -4 as a +b(or any other variable to represent y intercept)
therefore,
7=-3(-2)+b
7=6+b
1=b
y=-3x+1
