Answer:

13v + 2b = 211

4v + 4b = 268

#students each VAN can carry:   7

#students each BUS can carry: 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v = number of students in each van.

Let b = number of students in each bus.

High School A:

13v + 2b = 211

High School B:

4v + 4b = 268

The system of equations is

13v + 2b = 211

4v + 4b = 268

We will solve this system of equation with the addition method.

Write the first equation as it is. Divide both sides of the first equation by 2 and write it below the first equation. Then add the equations.

        13v + 2b = 211

(+)     -2v - 2b = -134

----------------------------

        11v         = 77

Divide both sides by 11.

v = 7

Substitute 7 for v in the first original equation and solve for b.

13v + 2b = 211

13(7) + 2b = 211

91 + 2b = 211

Subtract 91 from both sides.

2b = 120

Divide both sides by 2.

b = 60

Answer:

13v + 2b = 211

4v + 4b = 268

#students each VAN can carry:   7

#students each BUS can carry: 60

Answer:

each van carries 7 students

each bus carries 60 students

Step-by-step explanation:

let v = # students in a van

let b = # students in a bus

system of equations:

13v + 2b = 211

4v + 4b = 268

I multiplied the 1st equation by -2 to eliminate the 'b' terms

 -26v - 4b = -422

+ <u>4v  + 4b = 268</u>

-22v = -154

v = 7

substitute  '7' for 'v':

4(7) + 4b = 268

28 + 4b = 268

4b = 240

b = 60

Answer:

The volume of the swimming pool is approximately 2475 yd³ to the nearest whole number

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The width of the swimming pool = 75 ft. 1 in.

The length of swimming pool = 60 ft.

The depth of the swimming pool = 14 ft. 10 in.

Therefore;

The volume of the swimming pool = Width × Length × Depth

The volume of the swimming pool = 75 ft. 1 in. × 60 ft. × 14 ft. 10 in.

The volume of the swimming pool = 901 in. × 720 in. × 178 in. = 115472160 in.³

1 in.³ = 2.14335 × 10⁻⁵ yd³

∴ 115472160 in.³ = 115472160 in.³  × 2.14335 × 10⁻⁵ yd³/in³ ≈ 2474.969 yd³

Which gives;

The volume of the swimming pool ≈ 2475 yd³ to the nearest whole number.

Thehe minimum weight of the 20 student is 20 kg.If their range is 20 kg,find the maximum weight and the coefficient of range​
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Range=x maximum (xm) –x minimum (x0)

xm=20+20=40

Coefficient of Range= xm–x0/xm+x0

=40-20/40+20

=20/60

=2/6

=1/3
