Answer: 25 bikes and 55 cars were used.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent number of bicycles that the students ride to school.

Let c represent number of cars that the students drive to school.

At Billy's school, 80 students come to school by bike or car. It means that

b + c = 80

A bike has 2 wheels. A car has 4 wheels. Together the vehicles that arrive at the school have 270 wheels. It means that

2b + 4c = 270- - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting b = 80 - c into equation 1, it becomes

2(80 - c) + 4c = 270

160 - 2c + 4c = 270

- 2c + 4c = 270 - 160

2c = 110

c = 110/2

c = 55

b = 80 - c = 80 - 55

b = 25

Hello someone help please <br>what is the product of (cosA+2)(cosA-3)​
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

cos²A - cosA - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(cosA + 2)(cosA - 3)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

cosA(cosA - 3) + 2(cosA - 3) ← distribute both parenthesis

= cos²A - 3cosA + 2cosA - 6 ← collect like terms

= cos²A - cosA - 6

Can you give me the answers to all of them, thank you

Answers:
22.)D
23.)D

How?
Explaining number 22:
Well, let’s disprove each one of them.
A.) A is saying 6x=7. Even if we simplify that, it wouldn’t make any sense in what we are trying to do. That equation is equal to x=0.86(estimated to nearest tenth)

B.) B says that 6x=3. When we simplify this, we get x=0.5. That isn’t the number we want, so we know B isn’t right

C.) C is equivalent to 2x+2=6. Let’s simplify since it is multi-step.
2x+2=6
2x=6
x=3
Since we want x to be six, this wouldn’t be the answer either.

D.) D is saying 2x=12. When simplified, this becomes x=6. BINGO THERE IS OUR ANSWER




Explaining 23:
For this, I also used process of elimination.

Remember that x is equal to 2.5

A.)
x+3=5.5

2.5+3=5.5
5.5=5.5
That works.

B.)
2x=5
2(2.5)=5
5=5
That works.

C.)
2.5/2=1.25
1.25=1.25
That works

D.)
x-10=7.5
2.5-10=7.5
-7.5=7.5
THAT DOESNT WORK THERE IS OUR ANSWER

Which expression is not a polynomial?<br> 11p-7q<br> 8xy^4-5x^3y<br> 2-x<br> -4/y
kkurt [141]
A polynomial is an expression that has two or more than terms. These terms are separated by an operation. Only -4/y is not a polynomial. It is a monomial. Monomial is not a polynomial.

What is the value of x?
Nady [450]

Answer: X equals B.


Step-by-step explanation: all the degrees in a triangle add to be 180, so add up the given angles and subtract from 180 to get the missing angle.
