Given:

Number of passengers seated in the roller coaster = 21

Empty seats = 3

Number of cars in roller coaster = 4 (each with the same number of seats)

To find:

An equation that can be used to determine the number of seats in each car.

Solution:

Let s be the number of seats in each car.

Total number of seats in 4 cars = 4s

Using the given information,

Total number of seats = Occupied seated + Empty seats

                                   = 21 + 3

                                   = 24

Now, the required equation is

4s=24

Therefore, the required equation is 4s=24.

Divide both sides by 4.

s=\dfrac{24}{4}

s=6

Therefore, the number of seats in each car is 6.

You would most likely use lettuce leaves, because grapes are little orbs of fruit with no leaves, zuchini are funny shaped veggies, and hibiscus is a type of tree. So, the most logical answer would be lettuce leaves.

BRAINLIEST ASAP! PLEASE. HELP ME :) I need help with part 2 of the question.
tino4ka555 [31]

Part 2:

-4a + 2 + 11a = 5a + 3 + 2a

~Combine like terms

7a + 2 = 7a + 3

~Subtract 2 to both sides

7a = 7a - 1

~Subtract 7a to both sides

0 = 1

Therefore, there are no solutions.

Best of Luck!
