This is one of those problems where you'll sink like a rock if
you allow yourself to be blinded by all the useless, unnecessary,
irrelevant information in the first paragraph.
The ONLY information you need is:
-- You're chartering a bus for 1 day.
-- It costs $780 .
That's ALL .
(You don't even need to know that the bus has 55 seats.
You might need that for #8 - #12, but not for #6 or #7.)
_________________________
If the people on the trip are going to share the cost of the bus,
then the cost of each share depends on the number of people.
Less people ==> each one pays more.
More people ==> each one pays less.
Just like everybody in the office sharing the cost of
a birthday gift for the boss.
#6 and #7 should really be done in the reverse order ...
do #7 before you worry about #6.
Before you can fill in the table in #6, you absolutely need
to have the equation, whether or not you realize it.
The total cost is fixed . . . It's $780 .
If 2 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 2 .
If 3 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 3 .
If 4 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 4 .
If 5 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 5 .
.
.
If 10 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 10 .
.
.
If 20 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 20 .
.
.
If ' n ' people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / n .
.
. until the bus is full ...
.
If 55 people go on the trip, each one pays 780 / 55 .
.
If 56 people go on the trip, then you need another bus,
and it gets more complicated.
But up to 55, the price per person is (780 / the number of people).
<span> #7). P = 780 / n .
</span>Now, filling in the table in #6 is a piece 'o cake.<span>
</span>5 people. . . . . . . 780 / 5
10 people . . . . . 780 / 10
15 people . . . . . 780 / 15
20 people . . . . . 780 / 20
.
.
etc.
Just don't go past 55 people. The equation changes after that.
For ANY number of people, even hundreds, and ANY number
of buses, I think the equation looks something like this:
P = (785/n) · [ 1 + int(n/56) ] .
' int ' means ' the greatest integer in ... ', that is,
' throw away the fractional part of the quotient,
and use only the whole number '.
In this problem it just goes left to right, 1-18+25 = -17+25 = 8
(1-18)+25-17+25=8<span>
</span>When you do addition and subtraction they are reversible so you just go left to right
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
A^2+b^2=c^2
8^2+15^2=20^2
64+225=400
289=400
289 does not equal 400 so it is not a right triangle
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the area of kite ABCD is shown below:
Given data
AC = 10 ;
BD = 6
As we can see from the attached figure that the Kite is a quadrilateral as it involves two adjacent sides i.e to be equal
Now the area of quadrilateral when the diagonals are given
So, it is
where,
So, the area of the quadrilateral is
Sometimes it helps to draw it out...

21
therefore, CM + MQ = CQ
17 + MQ = 21
MQ = 21 - 17
MQ = 4 <===
