Dang, you're an elementary school er? Good grief i'm and 8th grade math one student!
Answer:
8 vans
7 buses
Step-by-step explanation:
Let there be "b" buses
and "v" vans
Since 7 people is the capacity of vans, the total capacity is
7v
Also, since 25 people is the capacity of 1 bus, the total capacity is
25b
In total 231 people, so we can write our first equation as:
7v + 25b = 231
Now, we know there are 15 vehicles (bus + vans) in total, so we can write our 2nd equation as:
v + b = 15
Now, we solve for v and b. Let's solve the 2nd equation for v and substitute that into 1st and solve for b first:
v + b = 15
v = 15 - b
Now,

Hence, there are 7 buses
Since 15 vehicles in total, the number of vans is:
15 - 7 = 8 vans
So,
8 vans
7 buses
Answer:
Tn = 6.4 + 1.8n
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Sequence: 8.2, 10, 11.8, 13.6
Required
The formula of the sequence.
First, the type of the sequence needs to be determined (arithmetic or geometric)
It is an arithmetic sequence because each successive sequence is separated by a common difference..
The common difference is represented by d and it's calculated as follows.
d = 10 - 8.2 or 11.8 - 10 or 13.6 - 11.8
Each of the above gives
d = 1.8
Now, that we have the common difference; the next is to determine the formula using the Arithmetic Progression formula.
Tn = T1 + (n - 1)d
Where T1 is the first term of the progression; T1 = 8.2
By substituting 8.2 for T1 and 1.8 for d.
This gives
Tn = 8.2 + (n - 1) * 1.8
Open bracket
Tn = 8.2 + 1.8 * n - 1 * 1.8
Tn = 8.2 + 1.8n - 1.8
Collect like terms
Tn = 8.2 - 1.8 + 1.8n
Tn = 6.4 + 1.8n
Hence, the formula of the sequence is Tn = 6.4 + 1.8n
