Answer:

x = number of students in the van = 14

y = number of students in the bus = 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of students in the van

y = number of students in the bus

14x + 2y = 270 (1)

9x + 9y = 459 (2)

Multiply (1) by 9 and (2) by 2

126x + 18y = 2,430 (3)

18x + 18y = 918 (4)

Subtract (4) from (3)

126x - 18x = 2,430 - 918

108x = 1,512

x = 1,512 / 108

= 14

x = 14 students in each van

Substitute x = 14 into (1)

14x + 2y = 270

14(14) + 2y = 270

196 + 2y = 270

2y = 270 - 196

2y = 74

y = 74/2

= 37

y = 37 students in each bus

x = number of students in the van = 14

y = number of students in the bus = 37

For f(x) = 3x+ 1 and g(x) = x2 - 6, find (f+g)(x).
mylen [45]

Answer:

<h2>B. x² + 3x - 5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

(f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)\\\\\text{Substitute}\ f(x)=3x+1,\ g(x)=x^2-6:\\\\(f+g)(x)=(3x+1)+(x^2-6)\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\(f+g)(x)=x^2+3x+(1-6)\\\\(f+g)(x)=x^2+3x-5

Sin5A/SinA-cos5A/cosA=4cos2A​
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{ \sin5A}{\sin A}  -  \frac{ \cos5A}{\cos A}  = 4\cos2A \\  \\ LHS = \frac{ \sin5A}{\sin A}  -  \frac{ \cos5A}{\cos A}   \\  \\  =  \frac{ \sin5A \:\cos A -  \cos5A \:  \sin A}{\sin A \:\cos A }  \\  \\  =  \frac{ \sin(5A -A )}{\sin A \:\cos A}  \\  \\ =  \frac{ \sin 4A}{\sin A \:\cos A}  \\  \\ =  \frac{ 2\sin 2A \: \cos 2A}{\sin A \:\cos A}  \\  \\ =  \frac{ 2 \times 2\sin A \: \cos A \: \cos 2A}{\sin A \:\cos A}  \\  \\ =  \frac{ 4\sin A \: \cos A \: \cos 2A}{\sin A \:\cos A}  \\  \\ =4\cos 2A \\  \\  = RHS \\  \\ thus \\  \\  \frac{ \sin5A}{\sin A}  -  \frac{ \cos5A}{\cos A}  = 4\cos2A \\  \\ hence \: proved
