Nezavi [6.7K]

- Make an equation representing the number of vehicles needed.

We have six drivers so

x + y ≤ 6

That's not really an equation; it's an inequality.  We want to use all our drivers so we can use the small vans, so

x + y = 6

- Make an equation representing the total number of seats in vehicles for the orchestra members.

s = 25x + 12y

That's how many seats total; it has to be at least 111 so again an inequality,

25x + 12y ≥ 111

We solve it like a system of equations.  

x + y = 6

y = 6 - x

111 = 25x + 12y = 25x + 12(6-x)

111 = 25x + 72 - 12x

111 - 72 = 13 x

39 = 13 x

x = 3

Look at that,  it worked out exactly.  It didn't have to.

y = 6 - x = 3

Answer: 3 buses, 3 vans

HElp Please its Pre-Calculus Matrix
nekit [7.7K]

The determinant is C. -541.

Using a cofactor expansion along the first row:

\begin{vmatrix}-8&-4&-1\\1&7&-3\\8&9&9\end{vmatrix} = -8\begin{vmatrix}7&-3\\9&9\end{vmatrix} + 4\begin{vmatrix}1&-3\\8&9\end{vmatrix} - \begin{vmatrix}1&7\\8&9\end{vmatrix} \\\\= -8(7\times9-(-3)\times9) + 4(1\times9-(-3)\times8) - (1\times9-7\times8) \\\\ = -8(63+27) + 4(9+24) - (9-56)\\\\= \boxed{-541}
