The senior classes at High School A and High School B planned separate trips to Lake Compounce. The senior class at High School

A rented and filled 6 vans and 7 buses with 412 students. High school B rented and filled 6 vans and 9 buses with 504 students. Every van had the same number of students in it as did the buses. Find the number of students in each van and in each bus.

Answer:

Number of students in vans =15 and bus =46

Step-by-step explanation:

use variables for the vans and buses

let x= vans and y=buses

Now solve the 2 equations simultaneously

<em><u>remember</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>to</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>number</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>your</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>equations</u></em>

6x+7y=412..........1

6x+9y=504.........2

make x the subject of one equation

and label it equation 3

6x=412—7y

x =  \frac{206}{3}  -  \frac{7y}{6} .............3

subs 3 into 2

6( \frac{206}{3}  -  \frac{7y}{6} ) + 9y = 504

412 - 7y + 9y = 504

- 7y + 9y = 504 - 412

2y = 92

y = 46...................4

subs 4 into 1

6x + 7(46) = 412

6x + 322 = 412

6x = 412 - 322

6x = 90

x = 15

Therefore there are 15 students in each van and 46 students in each bus.

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

\sqrt\frac{387}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc Length =\int\limits^a_b {\sqrt{1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2 } } \, dx

y=\dfrac{3}{5}x^{\frac{5}{3}}-  \dfrac{3}{4}x^{\frac{1}{3}}+6

\frac{dy}{dx} =x^{\frac{2}{3}}-\dfrac{1}{4}x^{-\frac{2}{3}}

1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2 }=1+(x^{\frac{2}{3}}-\dfrac{1}{4}x^{-\frac{2}{3}})^2\\=1+(x^{\frac{4}{3}}-\dfrac{1}{2}+ \dfrac{1}{16}x^{-\frac{4}{3}})

=\dfrac{1}{2}+x^{\frac{4}{3}}+ \dfrac{1}{16}x^{-\frac{4}{3}}

For the Interval 1\leq x\leq 8

Length of the Curve =\int\limits^8_1 {\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{2}+x^{\frac{4}{3}}+ \dfrac{1}{16}x^{-\frac{4}{3}} } } \, dx\\

Using T1-Calculator

=\sqrt\frac{387}{20}

Please help me find out the process to find y for the first three questions and tell me what y is
Sliva [168]

Answer:

1. y = 14.718

2. ??

3. y = 39.794°

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>HINT the side we already know and the side we are trying to find, we use the first letters of their names and the phrase "SOHCAHTOA" to decide which function: </em>

SOH...

 Sine: sin(θ) = Opposite / Hypotenuse

...CAH...

 Cosine: cos(θ) = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

...TOA

 Tangent: tan(θ) = Opposite / Adjacent

1. Sine: sin(θ) = Opposite / Hypotenuse

sin(42°) = y / 22

so on your calculator enter 42 then sin = 0.669

0.669 = y/22      multiply both sides by 22 to get y

y = 14.718

2. is there any other information??

3. The two sides we know are Opposite 40 and Adjacent 48.

SOHCAHTOA tells us we must use Tangent.

Calculate Opposite/Adjacent = 40/48 = 0.833

Find the angle from your calculator using tan-1

Tan y° = opposite/adjacent = 40/48 = 0.833  

tan-1 of 0.833 = 39.794°

Find the least common denominator of the two fractions 3/4 over 1/6?
leva [86]

Answer:

(2/12 & 9/12)

Step-by-step explanation:

12 is the least common denominator for the fractions, so they must be rewritten to have the same denominator, but hold the same value.
