Answer:
The equation 7 m + 15 m = 44 is the equation that can be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented.
where, m : Number of large cars rented
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of people small car can hold = 5
The number of people large car can hold = 7
Let us assume the number of large cars rented = m
So, the number of smaller cars rented = 3 x ( Number of large cars rented)
= 3 m
Now, the number of people in m large cars = m x ( Capacity of 1 large car)
= m x ( 7) = 7 m
And, the number of people in 3 m small cars = 3 m x ( Capacity of 1 small car) = 3 m x ( 5) = 15 m
Total people altogether going for the plan = 44
⇒ The number of people in ( Small +Large) car = 44
or, 7 m + 15 m = 44
Hence, the equation 7 m + 15 m = 44 is the equation that can be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented.
