Two high schools are going on a field trip. One rents 8 vans and 9 buses for 228 students. The other rents 4 vans and 5 buses fo

nevsk [136]

Answer:

No. pp you can fit in a van: 6,

No. pp you can fit in a bus: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v = # of pp in vans, and let b = # of pp in buses:

8v + 9b = 228,

4v + 5b = 124

If we solve this system of equations by substitution, we isolate the first eq. for v and then substitute into the bottom eq:

v = 228-9b/8,

Substitute v = 228-9b/8 into bottom eq:

[4 * 228-9b/8 + 5b = 125]

[228+b/2=124]

[228+b = 248]

[b = 20]

Now substitute 20 to find no. of pp in the vans:

v = 228 - 9(20)/8 = 228 - 180/8 = 48/8 = 6

Write an equation of the line containing the point (6,-4) and perpendicular to.the line y=-2x-3

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-7$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we need to find an equation of a line that crosses the point (6,-4) and is perpendicular to y = -2x -3.

First, let's find the slope of the line we want to write. The line we want is perpendicular to y = -2x -3. Recall that if two lines are perpendicular to each other, their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. What this means is that:

$m_1\cdot m_2=-1$

Plug -2 for one of the slopes.

$-2\cdot m_2=-1$

Divide by -2 to find the slope of our line.

$m_2=1/2$

Thus, our line needs to have a slope of 1/2.

Now, let's use the point-slope form. The point-slope form is given by:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\$

Plug in 1/2 for the slope m and let's let our point (6,-4) be x₁ and y₁. Thus:

$y-(-4)=\frac{1}{2}(x-6)\\$

Simplify and distribute:

$y+4=\frac{1}{2} x-3$

Subtract 4 from both sides:

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-7$

The above is the equation that passes the point (6,-4) and is perpendicular to y = -2x -3.

How do I solve x in a triangle

Sindrei [870]

All three sides always add up to 360 so add the given measures and subtract it from 360 and that would give you your answer.
